The Brigandine of Justice steps onto the battlefield…! Japanese videogame company, Happinet, announced that a demo for Brigandine: The Legend of Runersia has launched worldwide today on the Nintendo eShop for the Nintendo Switch™ system and is available to download now. Players can finally experience Brigandine after 20 long years before its June 25 launch on the Nintendo eShop worldwide!

 

Preorders for the digital version of Brigandine: The Legend of Runersia are available now via the Nintendo eShop. Additionally, in partnership with Limited Run Games, limited physical edition preorders will be available beginning May 1 and ends on June 7. The Collector’s Edition includes a reversible 18” x 24” poster, original soundtrack CD, Gustava emblem pin, housed in a custom box. A standard edition is also available.

 

The Brigandine: The Legend of Runersia Nintendo Switch demo features two key modes to select from for new players looking for a new fantasy strategy RPG and returning fans of the classic Brigandine series. The training mode offers players a tutorial on troop movement, invading bases and combat, while the Trial mode allows the player to take on the role of the Brigandine of Justice, ruler of the Norzaleo Kingdom in Easy mode. The demo ends when the player’s army reaches up to 10 seasons or when 7 bases have been occupied by the army*. However, the demo can be replayed for players to try different strategies and scenarios each time. Any game progress or save data players made in the demo will not transfer over to the game when it launches on June 25.

 

*Note to players: The Trial Version (Trial Mode) description after selecting “New Game” is incorrectly written as “experience a trial version of the game that lasts for three seasons”. The correct description is “The game will end after 10 seasons or when you occupy 7 bases”.)
