This article is over 4 years old and may contain outdated information

One of Experience’s earliest RPGs, the Demon Gaze prequel, will be heading to the Nintendo Switch and PC outside Japan in 2021 as Saviors of Sapphire Wings & Stranger of Sword City Revisited. Saviors of Sapphire Wings is the localization and port of the 2019 PlayStation Vita game Azure-Winged Chevalier, which is a remake of the 2010 game Students of the Round.

As the title suggests, this will be a two-for-one sort of game that packs in two updates of Experience’s dungeon-diving RPGs. Stranger of Sword City Revisited is a bonus. It will be an updated version of the RPG that appeared on the Xbox 360 in Japan in 2014, before eventually showing up on the PlayStation Vita, Xbox One, and PC worldwide in 2016. In its press release, NIS America noted people can expect “expanded character creation options, in-game events, and new items and equipment.”

Overlord of Darkness Ol=Ohma defeated the Knights of the Round and has overtaken and ruined the world. However, hope still exists. Players are a revived hero who is able to create a party of characters to fight back and perhaps do what the Knights of the Round couldn’t. As expected from an Experience game, there will be first-person dungeon diving and turn-based battles.

Here’s the first trailer.
