Voice of Cards: The Forsaken Maiden launching on Switch this month
Square Enix has announced that Voice of Cards: The Forsaken Maiden, a standalone followup to Voice of Cards: The Isle Dragon Roars, will be arriving digitally on the Switch eShop on February 17. Check out the announcement trailer along with more details below the break.
Voice of Cards: The Forsaken Maiden is set on a remote chain of islands that have been protected by the maidens for generations, but which now face destruction. The hero of the story vows to save the islanders and sets sail for the high seas, together with Laty, a girl who failed to become a maiden.
The second game in the unique Voice of Cards series, where all elements are presented entirely through the medium of cards, in the tradition of tabletop RPGs and gamebooks.
A touching tale set in a world of melancholic beauty, brought to you by Yoko Taro (creative director), Keiichi Okabe (music director), and Kimihiko Fujisaka (character designer).
(This game is not a direct sequel to Voice of Cards: The Isle Dragon Roars. Both stories can be enjoyed as standalone game experiences.)
This game is the successor to Voice of Cards: The Isle Dragon Roars, an RPG stylized with cards to mimic traditional tabletop storytelling that initially arrived on Switch last October.
