A new title based on Rooster Teeth’s hit anime title RWBY is about to be released and this time they are taking a different route with the gameplay. In the last title featuring this anime, we got a 3D action title, but now that WayForward is developing the game, along with publishing assistance from Arc System Works, RWBY: Arrowfell is going to be a sidescrolling action-adventure game. Plus, it will feature four playable characters, more than 25 areas to explore, and an original, canonical story.

Set shortly after Team RWBY becomes licensed Huntresses in RWBY Volume 7, players play as Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna, and Yang Xiao Long, allowing them to switch instantly between characters as they battle the Creatures of Grimm and other foes using the heroes' signature weapons and Semblances in melee and ranged combat. As they explore locations across the frigid continent of Solitas, Team RWBY will solve puzzles, use items, earn upgrades, and complete missions for familiar faces such as Qrow, Winter, and the Ace Operatives (as well as everyday citizens) while uncovering clues about a mysterious new technology. Numerous new characters — including the new fan-favorite team of Huntresses, Team BRIR — play prominent roles in the story as well.

RWBY: Arrowfell is set to release on November 15th for PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Consoles, and Nintendo Switch. Will you be checking out the latest chapter in the RWBY series?
