NIS announces Saviors of Sapphire Wings/Stranger of Sword City for Switch/PC

I had actually kind of forgotten about Saviors/Blue Winged Chevalier, was more focused on Yomi wo Saku Hana (which I assume we'll get down the line).
Gotta love NISA's Switch focus though, I assume they're the ones who pushed for this. And Stranger is a great game as well.

Is this Savior of Sapphire Wings a new game? I can't find anything on it.
Also, never played Stranger of Sword City or any other Experience Inc games for that matter. Are these worth it? I feel like I'll need some new drpgs on Switch when I'll be done with Etrian Odyssey (which is one of my favourite rpg series) on 3ds

Doesnt exist.
Disgaea 4+ comes out this year so more than likely Disgaea 6 is set for next year Japanese release and western after that.
It's the localised name for a game that is Vita exclusive in Japan; Blue-Winged Chevalier.
Maybe but EXP is pretty all-in on Switch now too. I could see them planning a release themselves originally and NISA picking that up plus adding PC ports.
LOL nice! They did Corpse Party Blood Drive on Switch and are doing the localization of Zoids Wild: Blast Unleashed for Switch also! I knew they could follow in Engine Software's footsteps and be another JP game port studio for Switch, I just didn't think NISA would be the one to do this as they have Engine on speed dial with all of their Falcom and upcoming Prinny Switch ports. :P
I have the limited edition of Stranger of Sword City for Vita still sealed. I'll probably get these two and play this version of Sword City, whenever I do. I assume this will be the definitive edition of the game.
No. Unlosing Ranger hasn't been released on any other system. It's still a PSP exclusive, but it's compatible with Vita, if you buy it digitally from the PSN. They released two PS3 games that, to my understanding, are pretty similar to it, gameplay wise: Guided Fate Paradox and Awakened Fate Ultimatum.

There's a Limited Edition set for the Switch version already on their store.

Saviors of Sapphire Wings / Stranger of Sword City Revisited Limited Edition (Nintendo Switch™)
The Saviors of Sapphire Wings / Stranger of Sword City Revisited Limited Edition includes: Saviors of Sapphire Wings / Stranger of Sword City Revisited for Nintendo Switch™

Yeah, my biggest question now is whether or not the physical edition is exclusive to NISA's store/the limited edition. I'd like a physical copy since I have the X1 version of Stranger which is digital-only, but I'm not sure I can justify limited edition costs.
Ys9 has a regular edition elsewhere but that's Ys.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS, I'm so happy.
I've been waiting for the remake of Students of the Round for so long I even pestered NISA about last PAX for a localization, and I've been playing Stranger of Sword City on Vita but I'll def play on Switch.
With this we got all the games connected in the franchise right since we got Saviors, Sword City and both Demon Gaze games?

My bad, I was referring to the PC version lol
PS4 and SW versions were released October 2019 but the Steam and Xbox Game Pass PC versions coming out Fall 2020.
PS4 never got Sword City. The console version was exclusive to Xbox before this.
Was referring to the other poster talking about Disgaea 4.
But ya PS4 never got Sword City, it was stuck on Vita.
AHHHH HYPE STRANGER REVISITED!!!!
I thought it would get forgotten.
Don't do it Revisited is a better game AND a fixed one.

If I remember right they tweaked some skills and classes and added new art styles. It actually has a pretty good number of changes.
I'm so pleased, I assumed Blue-Winged Chevalier Saviors of Sapphire Wings would just languish in Japan being such a late Vita exclusive.
Getting SoSC Revisited is a fantastic bonus. I'd planned on getting the Vita version eventually, but between already owning a version of it for the same platform and the fact that it never went on sale I certainly couldn't bring myself to prioritize buying it.
Almost certainly in for the PC version.

The above plus quest, loot, drops, systems. they tweaked everything.
Yeah the original is still a good game but if you have the option the new one is better. Really wish it would get a PS4 version.
Ooh that is cool.
I got the original when it was like....$5 on Steam or something like that...or maybe I got it from a bundle.
I would say Revisited makes the original a bad game but some people loved the punishment.
What are the differences from the original release? I always wanted to play it but was too busy.
Honestly I liked it when I played it on Vita. If you are very through and grind it's not that bad but it's very difficult if you aren't expecting it.
I'm 90% sure they teased it yesterday with their mid summer greetings card (They did the same with Disgaea 4, D2 and 5)
So let's wait for TGS.

I mean in terms of being announced.
For sure it will be announced eventually
Looks interesting. Definitely in so I could support the devs in porting more of their dungeon crawlers over. Would love to see Demon Gaze and Operation Abyss over. Port all of them Vita games!
Well not being announced is not the same as it not existing, but yeah for now officially no one knows, it was just "probably" teased.
Demon Gaze 1 & 2 on Switch is literally inevitable at this point, so much so that I'm shocked it wasn't sooner nor first!
I just knew both of these ports (in the OP :P) would come to Switch eventually. The former was a really late Vita-exclusive from what, a year or two ago, and the latter was already on a number of platforms and NISA already localized the Vita original. NISA already had a close relationship with Experience and Kadokawa so stuff from Experience popping up on Switch via NISA was inevitable to me as well.
And on that note; with this and Prinny 1 & 2, NISA are legit throwing more weight behind the Switch than the PS4. Never saw that happening in a million years 3-5 years ago.

Ultra hard for crawler standard but also super unfair with the spikes and the permadeath.
I've been fairly interested in Sword City (and their upcoming game), not sure if the genre is for me but the art is awesome.
Did a mod really ban someone for this? They're asking about NIS' upcoming title in their biggest IP and didn't even mention a platform, how in the world was it port begging?

don't agree with unfair. It's was easily the best dungeon crawl in the past 10 years for me. Most games are getting easier so this was nice and fresh. Game looked great too.
