Shadowrun Returns releases next week, so developer Harebrained Schemes has put together a launch trailer showing off some of the game's character classes in action.

Set in 2054, Shadowrun Returns takes place in a time when magic has re-entered the world. Classes like the spell-happy Mage, the matrix-hacking Decker, and gun-toting Street Samurai are shown in the trailer, and you can read about the others in our interview with the game's creative director.

The game's Kickstarter goal was $400,000, but that number was greatly surpassed when 36,276 backers pledged over $1.8 million to the project early last year.

Shadowrun Returns launches on July 25.

    Wish this were available on Mac OS. Actually, on second thought, I wish I didn't have a Mac. Best of luck to the devs on this one - looks like a blast.

    I'm sold. It's like Badur's Gate and X-Com had a baby and it's name was Shadowrun.

    Pretty excited for this. Still kinda bummed that no reboot of the shooter is in the works. The game was pretty fun, even though it was online-only.

    I'm so excited for this, I can't wait to play it but I might have to wait for a review of it before I start playing it. hopefully it won't be more than a few days before GI's review.

    If you don't own Shadowrun for xbox or pc, I highly recommend that game. IMO it has been the best shooter this generation. It's over 6 years old and is still played today by lots of players. I think it would've been more accepted if they would have called it Shadowrun Arena. I am so disappointed that this isn't an fps sequel.

    I have been watching this one for a while, being a fan of the SNES version. I probably won't be able to get this as soon as it launches, but I'm excited about it and hope they did a good job on it. I need to load up a sega emulator and try that version out, I hear that was a good one as well.

    This one is a safe purchase. Much kudos to Harebrained.
