NCSoft has released a new trailer showcasing the worldview and setting of its upcoming title, Cinder City, at Gamescom Opening Night Live.

Cinder City is an open-world cinematic third-person shooter set in a fallen near-future Seoul. It is currently being developed by BigFire Games, a development studio under NCSoft, and held a pre-alpha playtest from August 14 to 16 following the launch of its Steam store page in July.

Players take on the role of Cinder Knights, each possessing distinct abilities. In the open world, players can enjoy content such as epic story missions, side missions, dynamic events, field bosses, instanced dungeons, and world raids.

Players can progress their characters to fit their personal playstyle and experience various content through cooperative gameplay with others.

This cinematic trailer reveals the core worldview and narrative of the game, depicting the collapse of the 21st-century world from the perspective of an in-game character.

Further details on Cinder City can be found on its official Steam page.
