NIS America (NISA) have released a gameplay trailer focusing on the new features coming to Stranger of Sword City Revisited.
As previously reported, the game is a double-pack of Saviors of Sapphire Wings / Stranger of Sword City Revisited. Saviors of Sapphire Wings originally only launched in Japan in Summer 2019 for PlayStation Vita, under the name Blue-Winged Chevalier.
Meanwhile Stranger of Sword City Revisited is the Japan-only PlayStation Vita re-release of the 2016 game of the same name. As such it brings that title’s new classes and items.
This is the first time both games (in this form) will be heading to the west. Both games task players with creating their own party for a dungeon crawling adventure.
Saviors of Sapphire Wings tasks players with defeating the remnant forces of Ol=Ohma, the Overlord of Darkness. In Stranger of Sword City Revisited, you crash through dimensions into Sword City, and must choose whether to trust the Kingdom, Mdell Co. or the Strangers Guild.
The new trailer focuses on new features coming to Stranger of Sword City Revisited; including three new dungeons, along side new items, skills, endings, and character classes. There are also Slaying Challenges to earn rare items from powerful foes.
