A new trailer and more for Loop8: Summer of Gods has been revealed
Marvelous Europe have released the first localised trailer and screens for Loop8: Summer of Gods, giving players their best look yet at how this narrative-driven, time-travelling RPG will play out.
A coming-of-age adventure, Loop8: Summer of Gods follows protagonist Nini and his classmates as they try to defeat the Kegai, demonic entities who have forced humanity to the brink of extinction. Raised on a failed space station known as “Hope,” Nini returns to Earth to spend his summer in Ashihara, one of humanity’s last remaining sanctuaries. Gifted with “Demon Sight,” Nini can use his special connection to the gods to reset the world, with each loop allowing him and his allies to relive the 8th month over and over until they get it right…or the Kegai overwhelm them entirely.
The game uses an emotion-based AI system, where the player's decisions and interactions with other characters impact their emotions and how their stories unfold. These interactions can also impact how allies perform during combat, creating a unique experience for players as their decisions can change the outcome of battle. With the power to travel back in time, players can rectify mistakes or chart a new path forward to explore the myriad possibilities of an August that never ends.
The game is currently set to release sometime in Autumn of next year, but there is no more firmer date than that yet. When it does release though, it will come to Switch, PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
