Nintendo announced during its Nintendo Direct Mini presentation on Thursday that Nippon Ichi Software and NIS America will release Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of DANA game for Nintendo Switch this summer.
NIS America began streaming an announcement trailer for North America and Europe.
The Japanese Nintendo Direct mini presentation revealed on Thursday that the game will ship in Japan this summer for 6,980 yen (about US$63). It will get physical and digital editions.
NIS America will release the PC version of Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of DANA worldwide on January 30, 2018. The PC release will include its updated localization, featuring a largely rewritten script and rerecorded lines. The localization patch for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita versions will launch on the same day.
Nihon Falcom released the game in Japan in May 2017 and NIS America released the game for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita in North America and Europe in September 2017. The game will also get a PC release but it has been delayed to coincide with the release of the patch.
