It's mostly a mixture of poorly explained buzzwords and mythology that my eyes quickly glazed over, but the drama at the centre of it all kept me moving forward. Our heroes, and many others like them, are in possession of supernatural powers and harbour a natural connection with their brain's inner potential. You play as either Yuito Sumeragi or Kasane Randall, two young adults who are recruited into the Other Suppression Force (OSF) and tasked with defending the city of New Himuka from cryptic enemies known as Others.

This journey into an alternate reality ruled by alien creatures should be endlessly inviting, but instead it seems determined to push you away with obtuse pacing and a cast of characters who aren’t worth investing in.
SCARLET BLADE GAME ART CODE
Like Code Vein before it, Bandai Namco has crafted Scarlet Nexus into a stylish adventure with myriad systems that gel together wonderfully, but the overall tone and general inconsistency hold it back from achieving greatness.
Its apocalyptic world holds promise, but ultimately, the game fails to capitalise on it. The journey you embark on remains engaging throughout, but it becomes difficult to ignore many of its smaller blemishes. Every step it takes towards telling a compelling story is held back by bland character personalities and narrative twists that seldom possess enough substance to justify their own existence. Scarlet Nexus falls victim to far too many anime archetypes.
