VIDEO: I Am Setsuna Launch Trailer
I Am Setsuna has been available on other systems for awhile now, but it’s finally coming to a Nintendo console. The Switch version looks fantastic and it will be one of many Japanese role-playing games to come to the hybrid. When at home you can enjoy the HD visuals, or continue your quest on the go with the high fidelity screen of the Switch.
I Am Setsuna will hit the eShop this Friday, March 3. Japan sees a retail release as well, but for now it’s a digital-only affair in North America.
Nintendo Switch™ players will soon enjoy the unforgettable and heartfelt story of I AM SETSUNA™, the debut title from Tokyo RPG Factory™, SQUARE ENIX®’s newest studio. It will be available as a digital day one launch title, and will include exclusive new features such as the “Temporal Battle Arena,” where players can enjoy thrilling battles against other players’ parties.
I AM SETSUNA follows the story of Setsuna, a young woman of incredible power and inner strength, and the sacrifice she must undertake to save the people of her land as she leaves her hometown. Featuring simple turn-based controls and unique gameplay mechanics inspired by the golden age of JRPGs, I AM SETSUNA merges nostalgic elements with modern current-gen technology. Tokyo RPG Factory’s debut title delivers an emotional story of bravery and sacrifice along with powerful character development.
