Take a Closer Look at Shadow of the RoadAnother Angle Games and Owlcat Games have unveiled a new story trailer for Shadow of the Road, giving players a closer look at the brutal conflict shaping its alternate version of 19th-century Japan. The trailer opens in the middle of a bloody battlefield, where soldiers from both sides clash over two very different visions for Japan. Shadow of the Road presents an alternate take on the Bakumatsu Period that is full of political conflict, competing ideologies, and supernatural elements. Shadow of the Road is scheduled to launch later this year, although its release date remains unannounced. With its mix of samurai drama, supernatural mythology, and tactical combat, Shadow of the Road is shaping up to be an intriguing journey through a Japan on the brink of change.
