Qliphah in Providence's Shadow Game Posts Gameplay Trailer

Arc System Works streamed a gameplay trailer for its upcoming Qliphah in Providence's Shadow game on Friday.

The trailer previews gameplay mechanics where players can stack skills within a limited amount of time to deal damage to enemies and counterattack by overlapping skills.

The Nintendo eShop also began acceping pre-orders for the game on Friday, and pre-orders and early purchases will bundle three additional skins for the protagonists Hizuki Rena and Soma Hoshigami, and an extra "Voidfall" battle with 16 high-difficulty battles and unique rewards.

Arc System Works describes the game:

In Qliphah in Providence's Shadow, the stage is Tokyo after the World Collapse — a city where reality is being eroded and the grotesque entities known as Anomalies run rampant. While working a part-time courier job, the young man Soma Hoshigami is attacked by an Anomaly and left in a "Half-turned" state, human and Anomaly intermingled. He is taken into custody as "Lost Property" by Rena Hizuki, an investigator with the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's Public Safety Bureau, Foreign Affairs Fifth Division (commonly known as the Public Safety Anomaly Response Division). In a world corrupted by Anomalies and facing total reality collapse, players take on the roles of Rena and Soma as they pursue the demonic drug "Tiny True" flooding the streets, the "Stigmas" (patterns carved into the body that are spreading among the youth and eroding their flesh), and a mysterious cult operating from the shadows. Battle and strike down powerful enemies in stylish fashion, cutting them away with flair, as you unravel the mystery of the world's transformation.

The "tactical counter-timeline RPG" features two protagonists and is fully voice-acted. It will launch for PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store on September 24.
