Scarlet Nexus Gets A Hype Opening Animation Ahead of its June Release

In a pretty stacked summer full of game releases, one of the many high-profile titles just on the horizon is Scarlet Nexus. Bandai Namco’s upcoming action RPG looks to be a wild ride full of bizarre creatures and fast-paced action. We’ve seen quite a few streams and trailers over the last few months ahead of launch and now we got our first look at the opening animation and it is pretty hype.

A strong opening cinematic can go a long way in setting a tone and Scarlet Nexus’ does one hell of a job. The crisp animation by veteran studio Sunrise Inc to the music by Japanese rock group The Oral Cigarettes make for a pretty fantastic opener and fits the frenetic tone of everything we’ve seen up to this point. 

SCARLET NEXUS is a thrilling Action-RPG featuring a unique dual protagonist storyline where players can choose to play through the game as either Yuito Sumeragi or Kasane Randall and experience the story through their eyes. Interact learn new details about each character’s squad members and finish both Yuito and Kasane’s playthrough to get the complete SCARLET NEXUS storyline. Beyond the story, both characters allow for different gameplay experiences. Yuito attacks with his blade while Kasane uses kunai for wide, sweeping attacks. Both Yuito and Kasane also feature their own skill trees and will be teamed up with a wide variety of characters through their missions. Combine your squad’s powerful psychic abilities with Kasane and Yuito’s attacks to take advantage of enemy weaknesses and dominate the battle.

It should be noted that Sunrise Inc will also be helming the upcoming Scarlet Nexus anime series for Funimation. So if the overall look of this opening animation is a taste of what the anime series will have in store then it’s going to have some definite flair to it.

Scarlet Nexus launches on June 25th for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation4, and PC.
