ComingSoon is debuting an exclusive trailer for Slave Zero X, the upcoming biopunk action game sequel to the 1999 title Slave Zero. The short video reveals the character that voice actor Ian Russell will be portraying in the game.
Russell plays Kurikara — the founder and leader of The Guardians. He originally believed that the technology of the Old World could be studied and could potentially reunite the world, but has since made a discovery that convinced him otherwise. Now he leads his warriors to overthrow the SovKhan. Russell has appeared in some major titles, including Payday 2, RWBY: Arrowfell, and Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor – Martyr.
Check out the exclusive Slave Zero X trailer below:
“From the top of Megacity S1-9, the Sovereign Khan rules with fists of iron and flesh. Beneath the city’s rotting foundations, a vengeful warrior embarks on a journey to murder him. 4 years prior to the events of Slave Zero, Slave Zero X brings new life to a world where horrific, living machines known as Slaves are primed to become the latest tools of war in humanity’s long and bloody history,” says the game’s official description. “A secret band of warriors known as The Guardians hope to stop these biomecha from being unleashed upon the world, but one swordsman among their ranks has a different idea: use the enemy’s own weapon against them. By merging with a stolen Slave Unit Prototype, Shou will become a furious Devil in pursuit of killing a false God.”
Slave Zero X is developed by Poppy Works and published by Ziggurat Interactive. It features the writing talents of RWBY co-creator Miles Luna.
