Sand Land Gameplay Footage Revealed At Bandai Summer Showcase

thegamer.com:

Banda Namco Entertainment was at the latest AnimeExpo which took place earlier today, showcasing some of the new games it has coming out over the next couple of years. Alongside Naruto x Boruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm Connections and Baten Kaitos 1 + 2 Remastereed, we also got a closer look at the upcoming video game adaptation of Sand Land, with a first look at some in-game combat in the game's Tank and Jump Bot.

To kick things off, we got a look at the Tank combat, as the player takes on some big alligators in a large desert with a variety of weapons such as a machine gun and a whole bunch of missiles. We get a showcase of some direct attacks, as well as an area of effect attack that fires off a bunch more missiles.

We then get to see a little bit of gameplay with the player controlling the Jump Bot. First we see the little guy crossing a bridge before it, and you'll never have guessed this, jumps up a nearby cliff. We're then given a little bit of combat, as the Jump Bot uses machine guns and missiles to take down a bunch more alligators. Both machines function quite similarly, though the Jump Bot looks a little more cumbersome than the Tank.

We unfortunately didn't get a release date for Sand Land, meaning it more than likely won't launch in 2023 now. However, there is an opportunity to get your hands on the title in just a few weeks, as it was also announced that the world's first hands-on demo will be at San Diego Comic-Con which takes places later this month from July 20 to July 23. We don't know what the demo will include, but it's a good opportunity to get to grips with how the game plays for yourself if you're already
