[p]Hola, ninjas!
September was sweaty, chaotic, and gloriou in all the right ways. We dropped our gameplay trailer, showed off new chaos (yes, including Shika Mala’s abs), and are now on the cusp of a world tour.
Here’s the rundown:[/p][h2]Gameplay Trailer[/h2][p]We finally dropped our official
gameplay trailer, and dios mÃo, it’s packed! [/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p]Combos flying left and right, new moves flashing across the screen, and enough cinematic chaos to make you wonder if the controller is even ready for this. [/p][p]Haven’t seen it yet? Pues… qué esperas, cabrón. 👀[/p][p][/p][h2]New clips/screenshots[/h2][p][/p][p]On top of that, we served up a feast of clips!

Events kept us busier than a Narkuza in a taco stand. We rolled through the
Mexican Entertainment System and
Six One Indie Showcase, slicing our way into the spotlight.

[/p][p]Speaking of punches - our
first closed playtest went live, and rebels like Enya, Leon, Nadine and others got their hands on the chaos. Feedback’s been awesome, and yes, we’re already sharpening those katanas for round two - which will happen sooner than you expect![/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][p]If you haven't gotten access, fret not, we might have some upcoming news (like tomorrow) about that. Keep your ojos open for noticias![/p][p][/p][p]We even snuck into an
interview with DevGodot, spilling secrets about design, lore, and why Nuevo Tokyo smells like gasoline and churros. Worth a read if you like peeking behind the curtain.[/p][p][/p][p]"
