Project MIKHAIL delayed to October; battle mode trailer and screenshots

aNCHOR have announced that Project MIKHAIL has been delayed to October. It was previously slated for an August release, but with only a few days left in the month, it was pretty clear a delay was inevitable.

But aNCHOR didn’t have only bad news to share today: they also had a brand new trailer up their sleeve! This one showcases the battle mode, and more precisely the battle system.

Here’s the trailer:

We also have some additional details for the game, along with some screenshots:

Set on an Earth where mankind is being steadily annihilated by the alien invaders known as the BETA, Project MIKHAIL lets you pilot a Tactical Surface Fighter in the war to save humanity!

Some are massive, standing 66 meters tall. Some are capable of charging into an enemy at incredible speeds and smashing them to bits with their thick frontal plating. And some can fire powerful lasers from over 300 kilometers away. Each BETA will require different tactics to defeat.

The BETA’s overwhelming numbers make them an unstoppable threat to humanity. Each mission will put you in the thick of combat, in arenas swarming with BETA. Some will take place at night, or in foul weather, forcing you to fight when conditions are tough. But no matter how bad things get, the only thing standing between humanity and annihilation is you and your trusty Tactical Surface Fighter.

Each mission you complete will reward with you a variety of new equipment. Use these parts to make your TSF stronger, faster, and more deadly. Build your own unique machine and use it to defeat your enemies.

Project MIKHAIL (Switch – eShop) comes out this October worldwide.
