motion, fight, and enigmas can all stream from the identical supply.
The primary trailer is now out there to look at beneath. I noticed the sport in a demo and the motion is sort of fluid.

The sport’s comic-inspired artwork route reinforces this sense of instability and surprise, turning every zone right into a placing, unpredictable area the place type meets shock.
