Yesterday the Game Awards ceremony took place and beyond the announcement of the winners, we had the opportunity to discover many games and trailers, including Last Sentinel, which promises to be a big one.
The annual Game Awards ceremony is always an opportunity to discover trailers for highly anticipated games, as well as pleasant surprises. This was the case with Last Sentinel, a new project that unveiled an impressive trailer. The game is notable for its development team made up of former GTA 5 team members.
Last Sentinel, a nice surprise from GTA veterans
Last Sentinel is a new triple-A open world game announced at the Lightspeed LA Game Awards. Either a US-based development studio owned by Tencent. The game takes place in a futuristic dystopian Tokyo. And seems to focus on the character of Hiromi Shoda, who appears to be a freedom fighter.
In the distinctly cinematic trailer, the story begins with a group of young schoolchildren terrorized by invading humans and protected by their robot matriarchs. However, when these protectors fall, it is believed that “the demon” comes to their aid. At this moment, the heroine Hiromi Shoda appears, who skillfully defeats the troops and saves the children. The game’s trailer ends with a depiction of a massive cyberpunk city. However, no specific information regarding platforms or Last Sentinel’s release date was provided. Except the game was developed by former GTA 5 players.
Not now
Last Sentinel’s development team includes veterans of major titles in the video game industry. Led by Steve C. Martin, who has worked on major games such as GTA 5, Red Dead Redemption 1 and 2, Need for Speed Underground and Bully, the team also includes professionals who worked on The Last of Us and Star Wars worked on Jedi: Fallen Order. The studio emphasizes its commitment to prioritizing player experience and immersion, with the aim of providing original interactive storytelling. What is certain is that the founder has a very good track record.
Given the little information available on the subject, we shouldn’t expect The Last Sentinel to be released any time soon. If no platforms are listed, it usually indicates that development is still in its early stages. Of course, we can always get a pleasant surprise. However, when in doubt, it’s best to remain cautious and temper your expectations.
