Good news, action RPG fans!

Publisher NIS America and developer FuRyu have announced that Reynatis is coming this fall in the West for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam. English players anticipating a localization will only have to wait a few months after the July 15th Japanese release for Takumi Isobe’s fantasy-meets-reality ARPG.

The first reveal of Reynatis was shown a few days ago during the Japanese Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase. Color me surprised; I didn’t think publisher NIS America would announce the planned Western release less than a week after the presentation.

Overview of Reynatis

Reynatis is an action RPG set in the painstakingly-recreated streets of Shibuya, Tokyo. In a world where fantasy meets reality, the citizens of Shibuya fear magic and the power it holds, forcing wizards to conceal their inhuman abilities or face oppression.

Seeking freedom through strength, the wizard Marin heads to Shibuya, where he meets Sari, an officer of the MEA, an organization dedicated to keeping wizards under control. Conceal your magic to explore the city as a regular civilian and shop or take on quests, or use your explosive powers to reach new locations and battle those who stand in your way. Fight for what you believe in in this stylish, spellbinding RPG from director TAKUMI and featuring music by Yoko Shimomura!

Key Details

Freedom vs. Order: The wizard Marin and the officer Sari stand on opposing sides of a conflict that will shake the world to its core. Experience an enthralling story that tackles oppression, clashing ideals, and the price of freedom.

City of Secrets: Navigate the streets of Shibuya and choose between remaining concealed to talk to civilians, shop, and accept quests or exposing your true self to harness your inhuman powers. Your journey will also take you into the alternate world of Another, a fantasy land teeming with ferocious monsters and secrets to uncover.

Might & Magic: Freely swap between using evasive maneuvers in Suppressed mode and utilizing magic to deal explosive damage in Liberated mode. Each of the 6 different playable characters has their own unique abilities, from summoning to aerial attacks.
