What Is the SYNDUALITY Project About?
A new, large-scale SF project created by the Bandai Namco Group, based on the theme of communications and miscommunications between humankind and AI.
The dreams of humanity and AI – forever destined to diverge.
The frustration, angst and sorrow from knowing that no matter how much they may consider one another, their feelings will never truly align. This project seeks to portray the pathos of human-machine relationships and through SYNDUALITY, it depicts the story of relationships between human and human, human and AI, and AI and AI. The final tale of misaligned souls that mankind will ever experience in a world slowly approaching its end.
Video Game
Year 2222: The story depicts the beautiful yet fragile relationship between mankind and AI in a broken world.
Anime

The SYNDUALITY Project consists of a collaborative effort to create both a video game and an anime. However, each story will be told via methods that are most suited to the way they are being showcased. The video game and anime are set in different periods in the same timeline, with the game set before the anime.

Game Overview
I’m with you.
Alone, but never really alone. Pilot your armoured vehicle with your partner Magus as you scramble for limited resources in this PvPvE third-person shooter. No experience is the same. In this ever-changing landscape, you must develop a close relationship with your Magus to survive in this unforgiving wasteland. The two of you, alone, on a one-of-a-kind journey.
Characters
ADA
Voice: Yui Ishikawa
Magus
A humanoid robot equipped with AI that has been designed to complement human intelligence. Their appearance is so human-like that it is difficult to tell the difference.
As the player’s valued partner, ADA joins him on board the Cradle Coffin vehicle for a variety of missions in search of resources and in battle against the enemy. Different units feature different personalities and appearances, with a unique Magus accompanying each player.
ADA is the Magus accompanying the Drifter, Alba Kuze.
Alba Kuze
Voice: Yuya Hirose
Drifter
Ever since the disaster known as The Tears of the New Moon occurred, Drifters have survived by scavenging resources from the surface of Earth, including AO crystals – a new and mysterious energy source.
Originally an epithet of derision, the word “Drifter” has now become a term of respect for their ability to survive by drifting through a harsh and inhospitable world. Alba Kuze is a young Drifter, who pilots the Bowie Rabbit together with his Magus, ADA.
Bowie Rabbit
Cradle Coffin
These are bipedal mechanised vehicles operated by a human pilot with the help of a Magus co-pilot. Also known as All-Weather Mechanical Bipeds, these machines are designed to handle unforgiving environments and feature a wide range of different weaponry for battle against Enders as well as un avoidable obstacles in the quest to gather AO crystals. The Bowie Rabbit is the name of the machine assigned to the Drifter, Alba Kuze.
