Idea Factory International has released a new trailer for the upcoming sci-fi roguelite third-person shooter game Scar-Lead Salvation. The game follows Willow Martin, who awakens in an unfamiliar room with no memories. She doesn’t know who she is, where she came from, or how she got there. There is an AI that helps her, but can it be trusted? And what lies ahead in life-or-death battles with machines? The new trailer showcases some of the game’s pulse-pounding gameplay, IFI states in its description. The game is set to launch worldwide in late May.

From a press release, these are the game’s key features:

  • Live. Die. Repeat. – Death may seem inevitable as you progress through the story, but it’s not the end. With each death you’ll resurrect where it all started—and maybe learn a little about what happened here in the process. Escape this loop and discover the truth about the military facility and Willow’s past!
  • Expect the Unexpected – You’ll never know what comes next as you make your way through the military facility. Each floor will present a procedurally generated layout complete with new enemies to face and equipment to grab.
  • Fully Armed and Operational – You’ll encounter a veritable armada of mechanical foes in the mysterious military facility. Use a variety of weapons, take advantage of status effects, and power up with unique skills to take them down.
  • Unlimited Power! – Dodge and parry enemy attacks with precision to build up Exo Force. When enough Exo Force is built up, unleash your ultimate power with Onslaught Mode and become temporarily invincible.

Developed by Neilo/Compile Heart, Scar-Lead Salvation will be published by Compile Heart in Japan and Idea Factory International in the West. The game will be released for PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, and PlayStation 4 on May 29. Physical copies of the Western console versions are available to pre-order through the IFI store.
