During Microsoft’s Tokyo event, Hideki Kamiya showed off new gameplay from upcoming Xbox One exclusive Scalebound. Scalebound looks like a really interesting title because of its complexity and scale. The areas are truly massive though we don’t know if it’s open world. The gameplay showcased a variety of systems including the role-playing elements, different weapons like bows and enormous swords, the inventory, villages, and the ability to customize your dragon.
If you thought you were just going to fight dragons and soldiers in Scalebound, I have news for you. The title features tremendous variety that even includes giant insects. There’s so much to absorb from the gameplay that you just have to watch.
Scalebound became my most anticipated game when I first saw footage at Gamescom. The more I learn about this title, the more I want to play it. It needs to release right now!
