During the September 2026 State of Play, Konami announced a new action-RPG called Rhapsody in Scarlet. A first trailer appeared during the first part of the showcase, and more details were promised for the following Japan segment. It’s possible we could see it at the Press Start presentation as well.
At the moment, we really only have the firsttrailer for the Konami action-RPG. It notes that the game is set in the 1920s. We follow a young woman in New York. She seems to be both a singer and a warrior, as we see her performing on stage before heading out in the city to fight alongside an otherworldly beast she referred to as Skoll.
