Ahead of some impending success, the team behind this new mix of Yakuza turned cyberpunk Ninja Gaiden has dropped a combat teaser trailer. Giving potential recruits to Zombie Squad a look at the cut and thrust of this game, and the play styles available, the new trailer is a assortment of relentless melee sword combat, thrilling gunplay, and visceral limb severing systems.
Players who pick up the sword at TGS will get a little bit more than the rest of us, jumping into battle with a squad of kitted out comrades, a gun , and a sword. As squad leader Lt. Hannah Stone, they will drop into a dark and deadly vision of cyberpunk Hong Kong.

What lies beyond the first few steps is a blisteringly fast, utterly over the top mix of combat, fueled by mix of advanced weaponry and lo-tech 90s retro-futurism. Assault rifles, SMGs, LMGs and grenade launchers swap hands with deadly blades weapons and combine to create a devastating combo system that is difficult to pin down.
