Developer Nekki has unveiled a fresh gameplay trailer for SPINE during the Future Games Show. This trailer showcases new in-game action, cinematic sequences, parkour elements, intense boss battles, and introduces the original score for SPINE, composed by Le Castle Vania (known for his work on John Wick and Payday). Set in a futuristic cyberpunk world, SPINE promises to define the gun fu game genre upon its release for PC and consoles in late 2025.
The trailer highlights thrilling parkour chases, new finishers, and intense boss battles, along with nods to classic action films. It also debuts the original soundtrack by Le Castle Vania. The new single from SPINE is available to stream on Spotify, Soundcloud, and YouTube.
SPINE is a single-player, story-driven action game where players step into the shoes of Redline, a rebellious street artist, alongside her sentient combat implant, Spine. Together, they take on the oppressive AI regime of Tensor Corporation, forging a bond as they fight for freedom.
The game showcases cinematography and combat choreography crafted by action movie stunt experts, powered by Unreal Engine 5 and Nekki’s innovative animation engine, Cascadeur. This combination allows players to experience unique, action-packed battles, making them the stars of their own dynamic action movie.
“We believe a truly cinematic game should immerse players in its world and story through action, not just cutscenes, a huge focus in SPINE is on fluidity of movement and combat. Today’s trailer featuring early gameplay is a glimpse at how we’ll deliver on that promise, with real-life stunt work from action movie specialists, a camera that puts players in the heat of the action, free-flowing combat and takedowns that let players orchestrate their own action scenes, and a hardcore soundtrack from artists like Le Castle Vania!” – Dmitry Pimenov, Producer of SPINE
