Bandai Namco’s first next gen title, SCARLET NEXUS, for home consoles and PC

As previously revealed on Inside Xbox, Bandai Namco’s SCARLET NEXUS, is a new RPG franchise developed by Bandai Namco Studios, lead by former members from the company’s Tales of series. Take on the role of Yuito Sumeragi, possessing a talent in psycho-kinesis, and explore the futuristic city of New Himuka. Uncover the mysteries of  a Brain Punk future caught between technology and psychic abilities, on the Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Playstation 5, Playstation 4 and PC via Steam.

As the story goes:

In the far distant future, a psionic hormone was discovered in the human brain, granting people extra-sensory powers and changed the world as we knew it. As humanity entered this new era, deranged mutants known as Others began to descend from the sky with a hunger for human brains. Impervious to conventional weapons, those with acute extra-sensory abilities, known as psychics, were our only chance to fight the onslaught from above and preserve humanity. Since then, psychics have been scouted for their talents and recruited to the Other Suppression Force, humanity’s last line of defense.
