Nippon Ichi Software America has confirmed that their English localised release of FURYU Corporations’ latest action RPG, REYNATIS, is set to go live on the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and Windows PC (via Steam) from 27 September 2024. The release date may differ slightly between regions, with Australian and New Zealand gamers having to wait an extra week until 4 October 2024 to get their hands on the game.
REYNATIS is an action RPG pitched as being set in the “painstakingly-recreated streets of Shibuya, Tokyo”. This is not your everyday Shibuya however, and is instead 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. Players must conceal their magic as they explore the city as a regular civilian and shop or take on quests then use their explosive powers to reach new locations and battle those who stand in your way.
Seeking freedom through strength, the wizard Marin heads to Shibuya, where he meets Sari, an officer of the M.E.A., an organization dedicated to keeping wizards under control. There, Marin also encounters Owl, a support group for stray wizards working towards a world where wizards and non-magic users can safely coexist. Consisting of just three members: Michiro, Moa, and Nika, Owl keeps radicalized vigilantes in check and imposes their own sanctions on troublesome matters that the law-abiding M.E.A. cannot control.
In addition to the main game, REYNATIS will feature a special crossover with the Square Enix game NEO: The World Ends with You, with characters, locations, and enemies from the RPG being brought across into this one.
