Director Hideki Kamiya has always loved the cousins of Vermithraax: "When I was in high school, I really enjoyed sword and sorcery fantasy games like Sorcerian on my computer. [...] For some reason I've never had a chance to express that sort of love - I mean, I've had plenty of opportunities to make games - but with [Scalebound] I'm able to."
Scalebound will be the company's first full-on foray into fantasy. "I actually didn't notice that until it was pointed out," Kamiya said. "We didn't really go into this with the intent of 'let's make a fantasy game.' Rather, we focused on developing the game we wanted to make and it happened to be a fantasy game."

As for the release date, producer Atsushi Inaba says: "We're not at a stage where we can answers what percent the game is done. [...] Seeing as we've announced the title, we want to avoid a situation where we end up making fans wait for years and years."
So there you have it: Scalebound is coming to Xbox One exclusively sometime in the near future. Think 2015 more than 2016.
