At the Tokyo Game Show last week, gumi Inc. announced that they’re at it again: Japanese hit mobile game Phantom of the Kill is getting a Western release later this year.

Phantom of the Kill is a strategy RPG set far in the future where legendary weapons are actually warriors questing to restore justice. Here’s a nice long trailer to whet your appetite:
