In a fusion of Korean neo-noir action cinema and blistering arcade combat, Big Sugar and developer Ikimasho have announced that their VR title, Tiger Blade, will be unsheathing its action on PlayStation VR2 come November 17.
Fresh Trailer Showcases High-Octane Sword and Gun Action
For gamers amped to see what Tiger Blade has in store, a new trailer dropped, unveiling even more sword-swinging and bullet-flying mechanics. This trailer can be added to your watchlist or snagged directly from the official press kit.
Step Into the Shoes of an Elite Assassin
The action unfolds in an alternate version of Korea. Players will step into the role of an assassin linked with the Horangi chapter of the Tiger Clans. Your mission? Safeguard some pretty high-stakes cargo from the merciless gangs haunting the underbelly of Sewoon.
Master the Art of “Slash ‘n’ Dash”
What sets Tiger Blade apart is its “slash ‘n’ dash” mechanic. Land a hit on an enemy with your sword, and you’re automatically propelled toward your next target. The gameplay maintains an adrenaline-pumping tempo, delivering both sword and gun combat that refuses to let up.
Grapple, Shoot, and Adapt on the Fly
A grapple tool serves as your secondary means of movement, letting players swing between marked points to keep the action fluid. When it comes to gunplay, this title demands quick thinking. You’ll need to act fast to counter threats, seek cover, block enemy fire, and even snatch more potent weapons from the clutches of your adversaries.
