PlatinumGames, the Japanese gaming studio known for titles like Bayonetta, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, NieR: Automata, Astral Chain and Star Fox Zero/Guard, is still working on Babylon's Fall as confirmed today to Japanese website Automaton by Square Enix producer Yosuke Saito.

　　That is good news for anyone who really enjoyed the brief teaser trailer showcased at E3 2018. Truth to be told, though, we don't know much about Babylon's Fall other than it was targeting a 2019 release date on PlayStation 4 and PC via Steam.

　　The publisher and the developer only shared a brief statement alongside the original announcement, describing it as a 'brand-new, ground-breaking project'. PlatinumGames Studio Head Atsushi Inaba went on to describe Babylon's Fall as a 'new challenge' for the development team, in a short blog post published on the studio's official website.

　　The teaser trailer does, however, paint an intriguing medieval fantasy setting with the lore timeline; we've compiled it below. Lastly, as you can see in the featured image, the video ends with four humans facing the entrance of a castle or fortress, suggesting Babylon's Fall could be a cooperative action RPG.
