Why not just wait for E3, though? If it's a big project, that would give it the most exposure.
Almost all the biggest games of the year do not unveil at E3.

Haven't all of From's biggest recent titles been unveiled at E3? My response was addressing a potential From title (not that I think this is). I would expect a big title from them to appear at an E3 press conference.
God Eater reveal should be April 27 at Dengeki PlayStation, according to anniversary live stream, this is April 20.
I think only Bloodborne and Dark Souls 3 were revealed at E3. Dark Souls 2 was revealed at the video game awards and I don't remember when Dark Souls 1 was revealed.
After a quick search it looks like ds1 was revealed as Project Dark at Sony's TGS conference. So far it looks like many of their titles were revealed at conferences
I really don't think it's a From game. I don't think that's necessary for it to be interesting either though.
This teaseer already has a far better art style than anything in Salt and Sanctuary though (the game itself was great).
Well, Salt and Sanctuary is that.

Honestly I'm certain this will probably be a 3D game.
What I'm concerned about, if this isn't a FROM game, is if it'll be any good.
Namco doesn't exactly have much of an Action pedigree to it. Don't really think a Souls clone with low-impact Tales or God Eater combat would resonate well at all.

I've seen this on twitter, seems to be new news and relevant to this thread?:

This does look like it's it, but it's still not much to go on yet.

Makes a lot of sense, thanks for sharing.

Hope it's better than bloodborne.
Sounds interesting, I can't wait to see the trailer.
The user also updated his twitter with a bunch of infos:
Bandai Namco's Code Vain take place in ruined near-future. Player is a Revenant that has superpower, has to coop with friends to seek truth.
In Code Vain, Revenants have superpower in exchange for most of their memory. Losing blood cause them to turn into ghosts called Lost.
Bandai Namco's Code Vain has Buddy feature where player can bring one buddy to help exploring dungeons.
Revenants in Bamco's new game Code Vain mainly use melee weapons, like Great Sword, One-Handed Sword, Spear and Hammer.
Code Vain main staffs
Producer: Keita Iizuka
Director: Hiroshi Yoshimura
Team Leader: Yusuke Tomizawa
(definitely God Eater's team)
In Code Vain, Revenants have equipment: Blood Veil which use Lost blood. Normally it acts as clothing/armor but will change form when used.
Code Vain also has Temper Blood ability where successfully sucking blood with Blood Veil gives enhancements/new actions.
Effects of Temper Blood ability differs depending on the Lost fought, from enhancing self, weakening enemy, to direct attacks.
BTW I've been using the name Code Vain, but as right now only the katakana コードヴェイン is known, maybe it could also become Code Vein or others.

Unreal Engine 4. So this'll be one of those 20 Switch games.
That would be insane.

4/20?
There're obviously coming out with edibles.

Then it would be like the best game ever conceived.
It's better to not start with certain statements well before things are actually announced (we already have the NIS Minecraft-clone that uses UE4 but not coming to Switch - unless it's announced for a later release, which could happen), but let's hope so

Wasn't even aware that game was UE4 to be honest!

Me too, as that would make if the greatest game of all time.
Kinda like these fanarts, I would love it if From worked on a Tokyo Souls!
This is unbelievably cool. Perfectly done and would be really refreshing.
Sounds very interesting. Basically exactly what i hoped. Unreal Engine 4 would be great, hope that if there is any kinda mobile version that it is only switch so that that won't hold it back as much a something like Vita (sorry guys, i also like my vita...) but God Eater on PC/PS4 looked really rough.

Wow this sounds great! I can't wait to see more!
God dammit I thought those were actual screenshots of the game.
If it's UE4 it's hard to make a terrible PC version. Especially if you are Namco Bandai and at least try to do a good job.
"God Eater team" is Shift, for now we only know it's the same Bamco producer, developer could be complety different.

The artstyle is amazing. I really hope the actual game looks like that.
Yeah wanted to say this, all non-mobile God Eater games were developed by Shift, the mentioned staff so far is all Bandai Namco. If that stays that way it's not the God Eater team but the publisher staff trying to do something without their previous developer.
