Eyes open
Japanese publisher Cygames has revealed Project Awakening, an action role-playing game currently set to release on PlayStation 4. Although we've heard of the title before -- the name has been floating around for a while -- it got a brief teaser trailer at Sony's PlayStation LineUp Tour showcase, which you can watch above.
It doesn't tell us much, but it's clear that the game's going to be a looker. Consider us interested.

Day one buy, looks awesome, another banger coming to ps4.
This one looks right up my alley. Nothing about this disappoints me.
@b1ackjack_ps You're gonna have to go "Deep Down" the archives for that one.......... Ok I'll show myself out
Hmmmmmmmmm........... I'm interested
Looking good!
Looks pretty awesome.
thats a great looking game.wow.amazing graphics😱.word up son
Deep Down is finally coming!
What happened to Capcom's Phanta rhei (?) engine anyway?? My suspicions tell me this is whats holding "Deep Down"s development
Looks Awsome!
Any word On if this a true SP game or does it have coop/dark souls esque invasion?
Looks very promising. However, lo9ks can be decieving. I'll decide until the devs shows us gameplay. I mean, Cygames did developed Granblue Fantasy, which was one of the most popular mobile games in Japan, so I have faith on what they're doing.
@b1ackjack_ps sad that we'll never see it come out this Gen
Project Judge, Project Awakening, so many project titles, here's another:

Maybe if Xbox had made scalebound like this it wouldn’t have had to be cancelled. Looks great way next gen I guess
i'm getting a dark souls vibe here, anyone else?
That looked really nice.
Still waiting for CyGames to give us a release date for Granblue Fantasy though...
@huyi nah, not really a soulslike.
Looks like it's own thing and what really stands out here are the superb animations. Possible ps4/ps5 release?
@tameshiyaku the knight helmet and the armour he uses is souls like, like the dragon animations though.
@huyi So medieval armor = souls like? Those have been around much longer than Souls.
@huyi soulslike defines itself through gameplay. Dark fantasy is nothing new.
The graphics are too good to be PS4 and not made by Naughty Dog / Santa Monica...
@Cordeceps come on... ever heard the term jumping the gun? we have seen nothing with that trailer and yet you have praised it as an elite title worthy of a blind purchase lol cy games has never even put out a console game before and is known for medicore browser and mobile games... they have a lot to prove first before they can gain trust from gamers.
I won't hold my breath for this game. Looks too good to be true. Probably 4-5 years away.
I need to see actual gameplay to actually care for a new game but looks promising
I thought it was a reskinned version of scalebound after the partnership with Microsoft fell through, but it's a different developer. It looks nice, but I'd like more creativity in the environments.
Shadow of the Dark Colossouls
Cygame's Project Awakening will definitely fill the fantasy void Capcom left when they decided to avoid ever creating a new and PROPER single player ARPG sequel to Dragon's Dogma.
I swear if this game allow climbing on monsters and slaying them similar to Shadow of the Colossus and Dragon's Dogma I'm gonna lose it.
Teaser looks impressive but I'll need to see some actual gameplay first.
This and that Project Prelude Rune from Square Enix were two of the TGS 2018 highlights for me.
Combat looks kind of rough/janky... I'm not at all convinced yet.
