This will be the first time that Experience self-publishes a game in America. Stranger of Sword City will be an opportunity to discover enhanced graphics with new illustrations typed “manga” signed by En Okishiji. If you prefer the original drawings of Yoko Tsukamoto, know that it will be possible to select the style used in the game options at any time of the game.

Developers at the head of the game are the same guys at Experience who have proven their expertise with Demon Gaze or Ray Gigant. Although this version on Xbox One fails to release, NIS America has recently confirmed that the PS Vita version of the game will happen in the European continent, and it should offer all new artwork! Great news afterall.

The European localization version for Xbox One is under review, and PlayStation Vita version is still going to be provided by 25 March. The new artwork will be present there, always with the option to choose the former.
