The first major contribution from Bandai Namco Entertainment to the newest generation of gaming consoles, the company announced that Scarlet Nexus will be available to play on the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Windows PC starting 25 June 2021. This is a brand new action RPG intellectual property from Bandai Namco’s Japan Studio, helmed by Tales franchise veterans Keita Izuka and Kenji Anabuki. Despite their history together, this is not another fantasy romp, taking players into a gritty, near-future world.
Scarlet Nexus is very much like Tales of Xillia, there players can choose to control either Yuito Sumeragi (an energetic recruit from a prestigious political family) or Kasane Randall (a mysterious scout whose power and skill has gained her a reputation), both of whom are new members of the Other Suppression Force (OSF). Their different experiences interweave with each other as they protect humanity from supernatural monsters.
In making the announcement, Bandai Namco Entertainment shared that there will be three special editions of Scarlet Nexus available across Digital and Physical platforms. These include –
A Digital Deluxe Edition (Containing a Digital Art Book, the Original Soundtrack, Special Battle Attire Set -Red-, Cosmetic “The Other” and SAS Plug-in)
BNEE E-Commerce Store exclusive Guardians Edition (Containing 3 Art Prints, a hardcover Art Book, OSF Sticker, a steel book and all the digital items from the Deluxe Edition.
Pre-Order Bonus Edition (Special Battle Attire Set -Audio-, Cosmetic “Dream Catcher”, Cosmetic “Face Vision Seal” and Attachment Set “Baki”)
