New Square-Enix IP presented at Tokyo Game Show. No concrete gameplay yet, they only specified it's a survival-action shooter and it's the spiritual successor of Front Mission. More news should be released on the 21 of this month.
What's interesting is the team developing it:
*Producer: Shinji Hashimoto
*Character designer: Yoji Shinkawa (Metal Gear veteran artist)
*Toshifumi Nabeshima (Armored Core producer)
*Takayuki Yanase (mech designer for Ghost in the Shell: Arise, Mobile Suit Gundam 00 and Xenoblade Chronicles X)

And believe me, Shinkawa's art style is pretty evident here:



Consider me interested.

Looks super interesting, I'll keep an eye on it.

And yeah, Shinkawa's art style is instantly recognisable with that art.

Here are some other infos (you can find much more here: http://gematsu.com/2017/09/left-alive-third-person-shooter-set-world-front-mission):
*the game is effectively part of the Front Mission franchise, taking place between 5 and Evolved; Wanzers (the franchise signature mechs) are confirmed to appear and you can potentially pilot them
*3 protagonists wich the player will alternate during the story, each with its goals. You start with a young one, then a female one, then an old one, and you can switch between them
*main objective is to survive: you're stuck in a war-torn russian city, you'll need to do everything to stay alive
*crafting system
*multiple paths to choose in order to get to your objectives

 

It looks more and more interesting, and makes want to discover the Front Mission franchise since it's a train i've missed so far.
