NieR:Automata’s PlatinumGames and Square Enix announced the official release date for Babylon’s Fall at The Game Awards last night, alongside a new trailer for the upcoming multiplayer action RPG. The new trailer sheds light on the game’s lore and gives fans a glimpse of what’s waiting within the Tower of Babylon.

“In Babylon’s Fall, players become a group of warriors known as the sentinels, bonded with special equipment called Gideon Coffins, and throw themselves into an odyssey to overcome the titanic Tower of Babylon, within which sleeps a great legacy. In addition to weapons wielded in both hands, characters can use the power of their Gideon Coffin to equip two more, allowing for combinations of up to four weapons at once. The capabilities of different equipment will also bring endless variation to the strategy that can be employed. The game’s visuals are achieved using a newly developed ‘brushwork style’ to create a unique fantasy setting with a medieval oil painting aesthetic.”

Babylon’s Fall is slated to launch on Steam, PlayStation 5, and PlayStation 4 on March 3, 2022 with a three-day head start for players who pre-order the Deluxe Edition. Pre-orders are only available through the PlayStation Store at the moment at $59.99 for the Standard Edition and $99.99 for the Deluxe Edition.
