Story trailer for an action game is wild 😂 You'd think among KOEI TECMO, Team Ninja, and Platinum someone would think to drop a Combo MAD trailer or something to showcase the cool action—the freaking selling point—instead.

This isn’t an upstart trying to make a name for themselves. It is the fourth game in one of the most legendary sub-franchises (that is part of one of the most legendary franchises) by two of the most established and tested developers out there. Like, Platinum have had a rough few years but the actual combat of their games is still almost universally praised and Team Ninja are arguably even bigger at this point.
I would love to see more actual gameplay. But nobody is going to decide to buy this, one way or another, based on gameplay. And a story trailer is a better sizzle reel for the keighleys audience.
