Ranko Tsukigime’s Longest Day

Ranko Tsukigime’s Longest Day, is coming to the PS3 sometime this spring. The game has a new trailer (seen below) available for our viewing pleasure.

The game follows a high school girl, Ranko Tsukigime, who just happens to be an assassin by night, as she evades the powers “clawing at her heels”.  In each level you must outrun her enemies, dodge obstacles and kick some butt.

The PlayStation Blog spotlighted this game in an article showcasing Bandai Namco’s 2014 games and have said the following about the game:

Ranko Tsukigime’s Longest Day
High school girl by day, assassin by night. The perfect setup for this frantic side-scroller directed by Suda 51 of Grasshopper fame. This PS3 exclusive follows the story of the titular Ranko Tsukigime as she evades the clutches of a shadowy power that’s clawing at her heels.

Each level is a race to outrun Ranko’s enemies while also dodging obstacles and defeating baddies who get in her way. Fall behind, and Ranko will be swallowed up by darkness before beginning the level anew.

Longest Day is an explosion of movement and color, where players never rest in their mad dash from one side of the stage to the other. Slashing through enemies will unleash debris that in turn can defeat other opponents. Longest Day caters to gamers who obsess over perfecting their run through a level, eliminating every superfluous jump and missed attack.

Clearing missions will eventually unlock new costumes for Ranko, and unlockable art is scattered throughout the campaign.
