SPINE Q&A: Game Director Answers Your Top Questions

You asked. We answered. Over 500 questions came in during Full Contact Week. Game Director Dmitry Pimenov went through them and answered the most popular ones personally. Here's all of it. When is the release date?Hey Gun Fu gang, Fair question, and I'll be honest about where we are. We announced SPINE earlier than we probably should have - back then we wanted to develop in dialog with you and potential partners rather than in silence, and I still think that was the right call, even if it's made the wait longer. We're not going to announce a date until we're certain about the game. The team is

Hello, Tensor Citizens!The shortest month of the year doesn’t mean that we have less to share with you in our Development Blog. It only means that we can do it faster and even dive a little deeper this time. So let’s jump right into it!Battle EmotionsEven though we will see her from behind most of the time (which is certainly not a bad thing, thanks to the Spine, another character 😏), Redline's vibrant personality should be conveyed not only through her appearance but also through her lively facial expressions. Therefore, we’re continuing to work on them actively, with all our inherent animat

🎥 SPINE Development Blog: Cinematic Camera

Hello, Tensor Citizens!Throughout this whole Development Blog series, we’ve always described SPINE as cinematic, where every level feels like a short action movie. But here’s the question: how do we make it feel that way without taking control away from you?In today’s devblog, we’re diving into one of the boldest design challenges we’ve taken on in SPINE development: building what our Game Director, Dmitry Pimenov, calls an "action movie within a game." The result is our Intellectual Camera System. It doesn’t just follow the action. It shapes the scene, supports the flow of combat, and knows w

SPINE Turns Every Fight Into a Balletic Gun-Fu Thrill Ride

I walked into SPINE at Summer Game Fest 2025 with high expectations. The neon-soaked streets of Tensor City seemed to offer a rich, vibrant world, and developer Nekki provided a glimpse of what it’s like to play as Redline—a graffiti artist turned revolutionary—in their upcoming cyberpunk action game. And I’m intrigued. After spending 20 minutes with this stylish gun-fu brawler, I walked away thinking Nekki has crafted something special—a game that doesn’t just pay homage to John Wick’s balletic violence but elevates it into an interactive art form. SPINE places players in control of Redline,

Spine release date window, trailers, gameplay, and latest news

When is the Spine release date? If you're a fan of John Woo films that mix kung fu with pistols, then it's likely that Spine is on your wishlist. In the cyberpunk dystopian streets, the Tensor AI has taken over the city and is behind the authority's power via drones to suppress rebellions. Spine puts us in the role of Redline, who has a vendetta against the AI and its ruling elite and will stop at nothing to make them pay. Gun Fu fans will likely have to wait a long time to play Spine, which is a shame since it has an appealing cyberpunk game aesthetic. This story-based action-adventure game p
