Mimimi Productions, sviluppatori già noti per il proprio lavoro su The Last Tinker: City of Colors, hanno annunciato insieme a Daedalic Entertainment lo sviluppo di Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun, un gioco stealth con elementi tattici in real time per PlayStation 4, Xbox One e PC.
Ambientato nel 1615 in Giappone, Shadow Tactics vedrà i giocatori prendere i panni di Kage-sama che dovrà comandare una squadra di ninja per rovesciare il nuovo shogun:
Overview
Command a team of ninjas in a game where stealth is everything and being spotted by the enemy means almost certain death.
Skillfully hide from and sneak past the enemies fields of view, take their formations apart and hide their bodies to cover your tracks. Quick Save will enable you to execute your plans perfectly. Tactically plan actions for your whole team and execute them all at once. Make use of the vertical gameplay and jump from roof to roof to silently kill your foes from above.
Story
In the year 1615 in Japan, a new Shogun seizes power over Japan and enforces nationwide peace. In his battle against conspiracy and rebellion, he recruits five specialists in assassination, sabotage and espionage.
The team must fight against the mysterious Kage-sama, who plans to overthrow the Shogun. They infiltrate castles, gather information through espionage, fight rebellions and ruthlessly eliminate Kage-sama’s allies. The group is comprised of very different personalities; working together as a team seems impossible at first. Yet over the course of many missions, trust is won and friendships are made. The characters develop their own dynamic and each member will face some kind of personal drama.
