Devolver Digital has tweeted a steel-grey Presidental seal. That may not sound like headline news, but it is - the icon is associated with Metal Wolf Chaos, a third-person shooter from no less a studio than FromSoftware, the maker of Dark Souls.
Metal Wolf Chaos was released exclusively for the original Xbox, and exclusively in Japan, in December 2004. Its suitably bizarre premise: in the early 21st century, America has plunged into civil and economic unrest, and President Michael Wilson has taken matters into his own hands. Using a suit of powered armour named Metal Wolf, he fights to retake control of the country from those who have ousted him in a coup d'etat led by his own Vice President, Richard Hawk.
Which of these classic PC games need a random re-release?
Metal Wolf Chaos never saw a Western release, but gained a cult following thanks to a series of YouTube videos depicting its plot (it had full English voice acting). Devolver expressed interest in the IP back in 2016, saying via Twitter "count us in to help Metal Wolf Chaos get out to more gamers if From Software wants some help."
We haven't heard much since then, until today's out-of-the-blue tweet:
