This time around, we start with a look at character customization.

According to Taura-san, the story has a very different impact depending on whether you play a male or a female character.

If you’re wondering about the qyestion “Can you pet the dog in  Astral Chain?” 

Yes. Yes you can. 

We also take another look at the many cats that appear in the game. Apparently, Taura-san is a cat-lover.

Last, but certainly not least, we get to hear one of the main vocal themes of the game, which sounds perfectly appropriate.

If you want to see more, you can enjoy the previous “Mr. Taura Case File” series of tweets, the latest trailer in Englishanother in Japanesethe gameplay showcased at E3, more from the day before, and even more shown at Gamescom.

Recently, we also heard from Taura-san (who worked as Lead Gameplay Designer on NieR: Automata) on a few interesting elements that people may not know about Astral Chain.

You can then check out the latest screenshotsan older trailer, the original announcement, and the first details and screenshots.

Astral Chain will release exclusively on Nintendo Switch on August 30 both in North America and Europe.

Proud weeb hailing from sunny (not as much as people think) Italy and long-standing gamer since the age of Mattel Intellivision and Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
