Guiding an A.I. mech, (or “Cradle Coffin”), through the poisonous terrain, players must fight off not only predatory creatures, but also other human players, in a race to bring home the lion’s share of precious “AO crystals”.
A Synduality anime, exploring the lore of the world and its characters, is also in the works. This project has been newly rechristenedSynduality: Noirand is expected to premiere in July of this year. A new trailer, which you can check out above, features new footage from the animated series.
