[New] Daemon X Machina launching 2019 on Nintendo Switch

Who saw this coming?

Nintendo finally kicked of their E3 2018 Direct and surprisingly, it was a new IP that opened proceedings.

Daemon X Machina is an intersting looking title that will launch at some point in 2019.

When I 1st set eyes on it I genuinely thought it was a sequel to Xenoblade Chronicles X, albeit it with a cel shaded aesthetic.

While details are at the moment scarce, I have managed to procure some information regarding this interesting looking title.
