Capcom announces Remember Me at Gamescom

At Gamescom this week, publisher Capcom introduced a new franchise called Remember Me.

Developer Dontnod Entertainment is creating the game, which is slated to release in May on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC.

Set in Neo-Paris in 2084, the game puts players in the role of Nilin, "a former elite memory hunter with the ability to break into people's minds and steal or even alter their memories." Arrested, Nilin has her memory erased, and players must help her get it back.

Remember Me was formerly known by the working title "Adrift." Visit facebook.com/Remembermegame for more info.
