Nexon America revealed a new CG trailer on Friday for the upcoming relaunch of the Ghost in the Shell First Assault: Stand Alone Complex Online first-person shooter game.
The game's new update will be available starting on July 18, and includes a revamped UI, free operative rotation, a new mode, maps, and other updates.
The official website describes the game:
Join Section 9 in a first person shooter experience. Become a member of an elite force of cybernetically enhanced combat operatives dedicated to the defense of society, and use your advanced firepower, Tachikoma Tanks and unique cyber skills to bring down cyber terrorists in a connected world.
The game is free to play on Steam and on Nexon Launcher, with added "crate" packs costing extra. The game is available to play in more than 90 countries and territories, and features interface text in English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Polish, Portuguese-Brazilian, and Turkish. The game features English audio.
The game features characters from the Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex anime. Players can augment their avatars' "human shell," and can fight as one of several different operatives, each featuring a unique cyber skill. Players can also share their skills with teammates.
Nexon announced in 2012 that the company had signed an agreement with Japanese publisher Kodansha to develop and release a PC online game based on the anime titles Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd GIG, and Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex: Solid State Society. Nexon expected to launch the "Hacking FPS" game in early 2014. The game's original name was Ghost in the Shell: First Connection Online.
Nexon America offered early access packs for the game starting in December 2015. The game officially launched on Steam in July 2016.
