The Nitroplus Twitter account has posted a teaser for its upcoming new PC game, Dolls Nest. The project will come out on Windows PC via the Steam store.
There is not much information as of yet in regards to what the genre or story of Dolls Nest will be. It’s still in development, after all. In the trailer, though, we can see a girl with mechanical parts attached to her body.
The character is standing in a post-apocalyptic world while facing a large cross-like structure in the distance. Many comments on both Twitter and YouTube note similarities between the trailer and Armored Core. In particular, some comments have noted that the girl looks like a gijinka version of the 03-AALIYAH.
For reference, “gijinka” is the act of turning a non-human object or character into a human. Official examples of franchises that use gijinka characters include Kantai Collection, Touken Ranbu, and Food Fantasy. However, Nitroplus has nothing to do with Armored Core, which is Bandai Namco’s property. Any similarities to Armored Core in Dolls Nest is either a coincidence or due to Nitroplus drawing inspiration from the setting.
Dolls Nest is in development for the Windows PC. More information on the game, such as genre and release window, will be revealed in the future.
