Kemco’s retro-styled RPG, Sword of Elpisia, has gradually been released on all known platforms over the last couple of years, and now it finally has a physical release through Limited Run Games. While the game has been released for Nintendo Switch, Xbox, and PlayStation 4 and 5, unfortunately, only the latter receives an LRG release.
For those who are unfamiliar, here is a little synopsis of Sword of Elpisia:
In Terra, a world whose civilization developed thanks to magic tools, there are frequent cases of people being turned into magic swords. Alice, a girl who is traveling with Aldo, the main character, chooses to become a sword to rescue her friends. Will their journey and encounters lead them to a predetermined fate?
Throw yourself into the beautiful, complex turn-based battles, using magic swords with up to three weapons set! The overwhelming charm of pixelated graphics surround your entire world and adventure in a unique fantasy JRPG. Not to mention all the necessary elements from treasure hunting, quests, pet buddies to almost-infinite level caps!
The pre-order is available right now and will close on June 11th. Both the PS4 and PS5 versions will cost $34.99, while digital versions are available on all major platforms for $14.99/€14.99.
