Project Y.T.B.

Project Y.T.B. (formerly known as Project YT) is an upcoming tactical role-playing game being developed by Monolith Soft and OtherRealm Studios and to be published by Capcom. First revealed at the Fantendo 9th Anniversary Showcase, the game is centered around an ongoing conflict between a rebellion full of YouTubers and the mysterious T.O.T. organization that threatens the mere existence of the Internet and its content creators' source of revenue. The release year of 2017 has been announced along with its availability on all current-gen consoles along with the upcoming Nintendo Switch and PC through Steam, with a Wii U port rumored for Q3 2017/Q1 2018.
==Gameplay==
Similar to Monolith's previous work on Xenoblade Chronicles and Project X Zone, the game is primarily set in an open world with role-playing and "Metroidvania" elements incorporated into gameplay. Traversing the world is primarily done on foot and with a group of 5 YouTubers at a time but vehicles such as jets and automobiles can be unlocked by progressing the story; doing so will also allow new opportunities for YouTubers to join the rebellion to open up. Some of the YouTubers must have missions complete before they can be unlocked and what's more is that these characters all have an ability they can use in the overworld. For example, ZexyZek can use his Sweet Talker ability to trick guards and hack into entrances, Minecraft Universe can use his Jetpack ability to fly over gaps, and Gaijin Goombah can turn his party invisible to sneak past cameras and enter hidden areas.
The overworld is littered with enemies which can be seen in full scale outside of battle and fighting them will earn the party members subscribers [this game's equivalent to experience points] and once they reach a high enough number, they will level up and gain new attacks and Subscriber Specials. Subscriber Specials are akin to Limit Breaks from Final Fantasy VII but are not learned naturally by leveling up, but rather through talking to various NPCs in towns and cities across InterEarth. 
==Story==
The story of Project Y.T.B. takes place throughout multiple chapters - of which there are eight - similar to other RPGs and every chapter leads the heroes to a new location with new enemies to fight, Tubers to recruit, and secrets to find. 
===Chapter 1 - How the Found Get Lost===
The game begins with a news broadcast from a network known as PHILLIP'S FILLUP [in reference to user Phillip DeFranco] who reports that supposedly a group of popular YouTubers raided strongholds worldwide in search of nuclear launch codes and, for some odd reason, plastic kid's toys. In response to the outcry against the YouTubers, the once popular names on YouTube are arrested and thrown into various prisons worldwide as a new organization known as T.O.T. (Totally Ordinary Tots) rises in popularity on the website and almost everyone falls in love with their programming. That is except for a small rebellion consisting of Thomas "TomSka" Ridgewell, Jirard "The Completionist" Khalil, Mark "Markiplier" Fischbach, Chris "OneyNG" O'Neil, Michael "Piemations" Pitts, and James "AVGN" Rolfe. 
The game begins on an average day for the rebellion as Tom and Mark head out to scout the area for anyone still active after the T.O.T. Takedown of a few months ago and what they instead find are T.O.T. employees - who in reality are children in body armor - apprehending another YouTuber. 
==Trivia==
*Originally, Project Y.T.B. was intended to be a new entry in the Project X Zone series with a virtual theme to it and known as Project X Zone3: Connected.
