Cypriot studio Nekki has re-announced its action game SPINE: revealed two years ago as a team-based co-op title, the game has now become a single-player narrative action game, focused on fast-paced combat inspired by the "gun-fu" of the John Wick movies.

The game does not have a release date for now and is still in the early stages of development; But that didn't stop the developers from releasing a trailer showing off the gameplay (or at least a prototype of the gameplay) of the game. You can find it below, along with the official description and a set of images.

SPINE is a single-player action game that's rich in history and focuses on intense close-quarters firefights with the aesthetics of the Gun-fu movies. Boost your reflexes using a Spine power-up and shoot villains up close, en masse, performing all kinds of choreographed moves with your firearms!
