Aztech Forgotten Gods: extended announcement trailer

Lienzo have shared the second trailer for Aztech Forgotten Gods, which is in fact an extended version of the announcement trailer. It shows even more of the Latinx-Futurism cyberstone colossus fighter in action! Release is still slate for sometime later this year in Europe and North America.

Here it is:

Also, here’s some details about the game, along with the list of key features and some screenshots:

In Aztech’s alternate history, European powers never arrived on the shores of ancient Mesoamerica. The Aztec Empire’s capital Tenochtitlan has thrived for centuries as a stone metropolis, technologically advanced yet heavily rooted in the ways of those indigenous to the land. Yet the gods of their past, like the feathered serpent deity Quetzalcoatl or Mictlantechutli, Lord of the Underworld, faded into distant memories. Until now.

Soon-to-be heroine Achtli joins her archeologist mother Nantsin on an unsanctioned dig. While searching for ancient knowledge that could help all of society, they inadvertently cause an explosion and awaken stone colossi hellbent on destroying the city. Achtli crawls out of the rubble to discover two new things: her prosthetic arm’s been replaced with a stone artifact, and there’s someone in her head named Tez claiming his own divinity.

Join the unlikely duo on their quest to crush colossi and discover why the gods disappeared so long ago. Battle massive bosses while wielding Achtli’s new gauntlet as a makeshift jetpack and devastating weapon all in one. Soar through the sky, run on walls, grind on rails, and bring the pantheon to their knees with stone-crushing strikes. Upgrade the gauntlet with Nantsin’s help to earn new abilities from plasma-based projectiles to energy shields.

Explore Tenochtitlan with Achtli’s incredible newfound agility and strength. Encounter optional side stories, unlock new outfits, and upgrade passive abilities by completing secondary challenges in the hub-world. Become the city’s savior with an adrenaline-fueled soundtrack that fuses metal with traditional Aztec instruments. Aztech: Forgotten Gods’ emotional journey took inspiration from anime and superhero comics and has a vibrant, Saturday morning cartoon aesthetic to match.

• Shape an alternate history where ancient Mesoamerica continues to thrive, its shores never touched by other nations
• Beat back the gods rising from beneath the Aztecan capital of Tenochtitlan as Achtli, a young woman equipped with an ancient gauntlet granting her incredible strength and abilities
• Launch rocket punches, grind rails, leap across buildings, and save the people of Tenochtitlan
• Soar through the skies as the superhero of a gripping tale inspired by Aztec legends, cinema, and anime

Aztech Forgotten Gods (Switch) does not have a release date yet, but is slated for a 2021 release in Europe and North America.
