Japanese indie developer and Hideo Kojima fan DameNingen Games revealed the Steam Store page<\/a> for Re\u2252Connect <\/strong>on January 21. Already nicknamed \u201cThe Dirty Death Stranding,\u201d the upcoming title has swiftly piqued the interest of users and is becoming highly anticipated. 
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Re\u2252Connect<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Re\u2252Connect is a stealth 3D action game in which you play as a \u201cdirty, balding old otaku\u201d called Kimokimo (which translates literally to \u201cEw Ew\u201d). Kimokimo sets out on a mission to retrieve his beloved pet cat and super rare anime girl figurine after they get stolen. As Kimokimo, you will traverse an expansive \u201cmultidimensional world,\u201d which includes ancient ruins, a deep-sea world, The Pyramids, Japanese castles, dark caves, a fantasy word with dragons, futuristic sci-fi and horror worlds and more.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Shibuya<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

On your journey, you will cross paths with enemies, which seem to be quite varied \u2013 ranging from a giant tentacled \u201cShibuya Monster,\u201d whose face is reminiscent of a certain 470-million-year-old fish<\/a>, to cute anime girl bosses.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will fight bosses using stealth and gun actions; and it seems Kimokimo will have a cool scanning system to scout his surroundings, reminiscent of a certain Terrain Scanner seen in a certain game. Re\u2252Connect’s Steam store page description also mentions a \u201cwireless communication system\u201d for communicating with other players, through which you can obtain \u201cuseless knowledge in various situations.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Scanning<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It seems that aside from taking back Kimokimo\u2019s precious possessions, you can also save the world \u201cwhile you\u2019re at it.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The trailer video made public for Re\u2252Connect showcases some very polished-looking action and graphics, and @dameningen07go, the developer, has mentioned<\/a> that they have created and introduced an incredibly novel game system in Re\u2252Connect. The system apparently boosts immersion and playing experience significantly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ever since it was revealed, Re\u2252Connect has been steadily garnering attention for its humorous content and promising gameplay, with people already predicting it will be a \u201c\u795e\u30b2\u30fc\u201d (en: god-tier game). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Re\u2252Connect<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Re\u2252Connect is currently in development and will release for the PC (Steam<\/a>). The game will be available in 7 languages including English. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
