Aspyr Media and Rooster Teeth Games have released a new gameplay trailer for RWBY: Grimm Eclipse – Definitive Edition, a remaster of the 2016 game of the same name.

The trailer shows RWBY characters Ruby, Weiss, Blake, and Yang hacking and slashing their way through the forces of the Grimm and the evil Dr. Merlot. The trailer also shows off the game’s local and online co-op, Horde mode, skill trees, and new outfits that are exclusive to the Definitive Edition.

Here’s a bit more on what to expect from RWBY: Grimm Eclipse – Definitive Edition, straight from Aspyr Media.

“In RWBY: Grimm Eclipse – Definitive Edition, join your friends in intense combat action as one of eight students of Beacon Academy and stop the evil forces of the Grimm and Doctor Merlot. Level up your favorite RWBY character and traverse Remnant in new storylines or the Grimm Gauntlet mode. Recruit your friends and team-up to save Remnant!

  • Play as Your Favorite Characters – Play as Ruby, Weiss, Blake, Yang, and Team JNPR and unlock each character’s unique abilities and upgrades.
  • Customize Your Style – Want to fight in the new Volume 7 outfits? Wonder what it’s like to run around Remnant in pajamas? Maybe you’d prefer to try out the exclusive, never-before-seen Power Armor? No matter your style, there’s plenty of outfit options for every RWBY fan.
  • Immerse Yourself in the World of RWBY – Experience an exclusive and fully canon storyline with full voiceover from the cast of the show and an original score from RWBY‘s composer.
