Astral Chain

 

 

Astral Chain

08.30.19

 

Welcome to the force! As the newest member of the elite police task force Neuron, you’ll have to fight off an interdimensional invasion, master a deep combat system that has you controlling two characters, and solve a few cases while you’re at it. But you don’t have to do it alone. Work with your Legion, a living weapon tethered to a human controller, to fight off the invasion and defend a world under siege.

 

Features

  • Control your character and a Legion simultaneously, building stylish combos by using both characters in tandem.
  • There are five different types of Legions, each with their own distinct abilities. Strategically swap Legions on the fly and devastate your enemies with brutal, stylish combos.
  • Your Legion can help with investigations, too. Eavesdrop on suspects, open heavy doors, or track a suspicious scent.
  • Uncover the secrets of the alternate dimension called the Astral Plane, where the mysterious invaders originate.
  • The ASTRAL CHAIN™ game  is directed by Takahisa Taura, known for his work as the game designer on NieR:Automata, and supervised by Hideki Kamiya, director of the Bayonetta™ game and writer/supervisor of Bayonetta 2.
