Loop8: Summer of Gods is out now across Nintendo Switch, PlayStation4, XBOX One and PC.
Summer is almost here. Vacation time is upon us, but this time things are about to get a bit apocalyptic. When Nini and his classmates land on the gorgeous enclave of Ashihara, you think they’d spend their time checking out the beach and snacking on some cool deserts. Between the usual teenage shenanigans, this lot are set on battel with the Kegai, demonic entities who have forced humanity to the brink of extinction and you can join then as Loop8 goes live across PC and Console. Available now and ready for new arrivals, this stunning anime inspired RPG melds together coming of age tales, fantastical enemies, and the relationship mechanics that evoke titles like Persona 4 but adds its own twist.
In a world where August repeats eternally, players must use Nini’s Demon Sight, to reset the world. Each loop allowing him and his allies to relive the 8th month over and over until they get it right or the Kegai overwhelm them entirely. Between 1 August and imminent destruction, players picking up this adventure will encounter Loop8’s emotion-driven AI system. This responds to every action you take and decision you make. Characters’ emotions and stories will vary greatly based on your choices, making each playthrough wholly unique. You’ll get to explore the beautiful snapshot of rural Japan circa 1983 and build bonds with the locals. As you navigate these relationships and do battle with outlandish demons, you’ll watch the fate of humanity unfold and prepare to try it all over again.
We’ve been pretty excised abut Loop8 since the initial announcement, and now you can join us on Ashihara for a break away from it all, and a dire battle for humanity. Check out the trailer above and head over to the official Marvelous website and US XSEED websites for more.
