Metal Gear Solid and Persona Inspired Gameplay

Set in a dystopian 2045, players assume the role of a private military company operative, undertaking missions with allies to unravel global mysteries and avert humanity's demise.
Stealth sections allow for strategic movement and evasion, providing combat advantages when engaging enemies undetected. Turn-based battles utilize various firearms and character commands for victory. Don't miss the upcoming demo!
