Shoji Meguro announces stealth RPG Guns Undarkness for PC

Persona series composer Shoji Meguro, under the alias MegaRock, and Kodansha Creators’ Lab have announced stealth RPG Guns Undarkness for PC (Steam). A release date was not announced.

Here is an overview of the game, via its Steam page:

About

Guns Undarkness is a “stealth RPG” that combines typical stealth game features such as remaining undetected and invading antagonist’s territory, with the traditional command type Japanese RPG. The gameplay is roughly divided into two parts: a stealth part that hides on the field and a battle part that is developed by a turn-based command-type battle system. Encountering without being found by the enemy allows you to enter the battle in an advantageous manner. Aim for the depths of the antagonist’s territory while managing your resources well.

The main weapons of the protagonists are firearms such as hand guns and assault rifles. By defeating enemies and obtaining materials, you can customize the equipped gun more powerfully.
