Nintendo has unveiled Astral Chain, a new Platinum-Games-developed futuristic action romp that's heading exclusively to Switch on August 30th this year.

Astral Chain is being directed by Takahisa Taura, senior game designer on Nier: Automata, with Platinum's Hideo Kamiya acting in a supervisory role. It centres around a police special forces unit, and their "humanoid special weapon" known as Legion, who work to protect a strikingly designed "multi-cultural futuristic city".

Taura making his directorial debut is very interesting, as is Kamiya being in the credits, his role is listed as "supervisor" so i wonder how much time he's spending on this project.
