E3 2014: Phantom Dust Reboot Announced

In a surprise announcement tonight at E3, Ken Lobb has announced that he will be working with an as-of-yet unannounced developer to reboot the Phantom Dust franchise, much like he did for Killer Instinct earlier in the Xbox One’s lifecycle.

Phantom Dust was an action/strategy game that mixed intense combat with powerful and spectacular spellcasting. While it wasn’t a commercial hit, it has since elevated itself amongst many original Xbox fans as a cult hit, especially since it’s online multiplayer component was shut down recently.

You can view the trailer below, which features some weirdly dressed characters battling it out with magic.

Phantom Dust will be launching sometime in 2015 and exclusively on Xbox One.
