Today sega revealed two brand new trailers of the upcoming Shin Sakura Taisen, which will be released in the west as Project Sakura Wars.
The trailer showcases the anime-style opening cutscene created by studio Sanzigen, which will also handle the in-game anime cutscene and the TV series that was announced yesterday.
A second trailer showcased during a broadcast from the Tokyo Game Show showfloor showcases one of the heroines of the game, the beautiful Anastasia Palma.
You can take a look at both below.
