Sony computer Entertainment has released a new trailer for Ready at Dawn’s PlayStation 4 exclusive, The Order: 1886. The new CG trailer called ‘The Pledge’ gives players some backstory.

The PlayStation Blog offers a written glimpse into the game’s story with the following description.

In The Order: 1886, we present our neo Victorian London; an alternate version of history centred around an age old war, where mystery and technological advances take centre stage. This conflict pitted mankind against half-breeds in a battle for survival and has been fought over centuries. This became the catalyst for the noblest warriors of their time to come together in an alliance, to form an Order who bravely battled to hold the line for hundreds of years.

The Order: 1886 was announced at E3 2013, via an impressive looking announcement trailer. At present the game is due for release in latter half of 2014.
