New trailer for upcoming RPG Threads of Time

Upcoming time-travelling turn-based RPG Threads of Time has received a new trailer for the Tokyo Game Show. As a fan of traditional RPG fare, this really stood out so I'm sharing it here.

The game is being published by Humble Bundle's Humble Games arm, which aims to support smaller developers reach a global audience.

The Threads of Time trailer spotlights strategic turn-based combat that lets players bend time, chain stylish combos, and outmaneuver time-twisted foes, while introducing Rin, a kitsune ninja from 2400 AD whose illusions and blade arts disrupt the flow of battle. Viewers step into Himmenheim, a prehistoric town where Vikings and dinosaurs forge a shared civilization, then jump forward to a sharper look at 2400 AD’s cyberpunk dystopia of neon rain and cameras that never call it a night.
