skinner49 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Source Elemental Labs has revealed the first information for its upcoming console and PC action RPG, Reborn. The title is a cyberpunk retelling of the tale of Japanese master swordsman Musashi Miyamoto. Elemental Labs has only released a story trailer so far, but we know the title will feature the trappings of the action RPG genre, including multiplayer, loot, different character classes, and a level-based progression system. It also bears the marks of the cyberpunk genre, such as physical augmentation, overbearing corporations, and a vast criminal underground. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e405WiLmMgU The story begins in ancient Japan with the story of the warrior Sojobo, who murdered his master and lost his humanity to stolen power. In Reborn, the head of a major corporate entity seeks that same power by releasing Sojobo from his prison. The Elemental Labs team includes Franko Fonseca, who was a director and producer at Square Enix, with credits on Final Fantasy XII, XIII, and XIV, Star Ocean; The Last Hope, and Space Invaders: Infinity Gene. You can check out the story trailer above, and visit the Reborn website for more information. Elemental Labs tells us the game is on track for a fall 2014 release (despite the trailer’s 2015 date) on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Vita, Xbox One, and PC.

Chambers35 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Could be a cool setting, and I tend to like action RPG's too I'll have to see some actual gameplay for me to get excited though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merciful84 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Oh, those ancient chosen heroes and their consistant bad habit of banishing evil instead of vanquishing it...it comes back to bite'em in the arse every time! Sounds interesting though. I can't wait to find out more details and see gameplay footage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANTIOX_ Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Looks good! I hope it looks less like a cartoon and more real like deus ex. Also why does the protagonist have to be a teenager?? Japans fascinated with teens in games :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Japans fascinated with teens in games :/ I know right? Look at all those underaged girls in rpg's with tight skirts. They sure have an odd way of expressing their fantasies. Pervs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pervs. I don't mind it most of the time it's just always the same. I want to be able to relate to the people in rpgs and if it's kids then I can't relate being 31 years old.
