Pixelated Milk has announced the release dates for Regalia: Royal Edition.
The upgraded version of the throwback RPG will launch for PlayStation 4 on April 10th, followed by the Nintendo Switch on April 12th, and finally Xbox One on April 13th.
It’s worth pointing out the console ports are being handled by a third party studio, Crunching Koalas. It seems like the PS Vita version of the game was quietly cancelled – something we noticed back when the Royal Edition was first announced.
Here’s a rundown on the game:
Regalia draws inspiration from Japanese RPG classics, but also delivers a modern mix of good old adventuring and dynamic storytelling. It’s a tactical RPG, but it’s actually a game about the restoration of your kingdom, bonding with vibrant characters met during your journey, embarking on the most peculiar quests possible, and bringing back your best Japanese RPG moments in an up-to-date, accessible style.
It can also be a game about unforgettable, rewarding combats and well-thought tactics, but that’s for the player to decide – there’s always a possibility to tone down the difficulty level or even skip a battle if someone can’t wait to see what other plot-twists lay before him.
Omitting the battles won’t make all the problems go away, though – there’s always something to be done in Ascalia, like dealing with teammates’ quirks. Take Theo for example, a vampire with a blood aversion, whose biggest dream is to become a hairdresser or Esther’s ambition to make a DIY atomic bomb with just a few gears and spare parts. Oh, and there’s always a fishing mini-game!
