Tokyo Game Show 2018 is just over a week more to go and we have a whole bunch of trailers coming our way earlier than expected especially from PlayStation’s Line-up Tour event.

Judge Eyes

Judge Eyes (Project Judge in Japan), brought to you by the makers of Yakuza franchise, a narrative Japanese crime thriller where you played as a lawyer who turned into a detective. If you played Yakuza before, you’ll feel familiar atmosphere but you’ll be the opposite side of the law where you solve crimes. If you have a Japanese PSN account, you can try out the demo right now on Japan’s PSN Store!

Project Awakening

Project Awakening, an action RPG game developed by Cygames who did quite a lot of mobile games and some console games including ZONE OF THE ENDERS THE 2nd RUNNER - M∀RS Remastered. Not much is known what the game is about but it certainly has Monster Hunter World-like vibe to it. We get a good look of player’s combat mechanic against large beast. Other than that, we’ll just wait until TGS 2018 next week before we can form any sort of conclusion.

It was teased back in 2017 right before TGS 2017 event, a survival shooter that supposed to release sometime this year is pushed back next year 28th February 2019 release date, in Japan that is. No gameplay shown but we can expect shooting & mech action from various perspective from multiple characters as the trailer suggested.

Gungrave: G.O.R.E.

The teaser tells absolutely nothing about the game other than the character, Grave, has a new look. I can only guess that this might be a shoot 'em up like the previous Gungrave games. We won’t know for sure until TGS 2018, that is if the game would take part in the event at all.

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, a game by From Software is a huge departure from their usual Dark Souls/Bloodborne type of game. If anything, it is a faster paced combat with impressive acrobatic moves, scale high places and even stealth moves. Players can do rather brutal damage against the enemy. Definitely not like Dark Souls.

Days Gone

Sony Interactive Entertainment made sure that we didn’t completely forgotten about the game, so they provide us with gameplay footage that we’ve seen before previously but this time tailored to the Japanese audience. Days Gone will be available exclusively on PS4 on 22nd February 2019.
