NIS America, in collaboration with developer FuRyu, has excitedly announced that their action role-playing game, Reynatis, will grace Western audiences in the fall of 2024. This eagerly awaited title is destined for a grand appearance on platforms such as the PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and the Nintendo Switch. Accompanying this announcement, an intriguing trailer offers a glimpse into the game's captivating world.
The narrative of Reynatis unfolds within the vibrant and bustling district of Shibuya, Tokyo, where the line between reality and fantasy blurs. In this game world, magic is known yet feared by the populace, compelling those gifted with arcane powers to conceal their talents to avoid persecution.
Players are introduced to the lives of wizard Marin and Sari, an officer for MEA - a formidable agency tasked with regulating magic users. As players embark on this adventure, they will traverse through Shibuya, maintaining the secrecy of their magical abilities while engaging in quests and upgrading their gear through numerous shops scattered across the district.
Reynatis is built around an engrossing, action-packed gameplay that showcases two pivotal modes: Liberated and Suppressed. In the Liberated mode, players can unleash their full magical prowess against foes, immersing themselves in intense battles. Conversely, the Suppressed mode limits players from attacking, compelling them to dodge and weave through enemy assaults, adding a strategic layer to the gameplay.
With its unique blend of contemporary urban settings and mystical elements, Reynatis promises a compelling narrative and dynamic gameplay experience for RPG enthusiasts and those intrigued by the marriage of the ordinary with the magical.
