Yasha: Legends of the Demon Blade, a roguelike action RPG, was originally announced last year. It was initially planned for last October before being delayed.

As a reminder, here’s what to expect from the game:

Set in feudal Japan, Yasha: Legends of the Demon Blade is an action RPG infused with fantasy elements and roguelite mechanics, telling the story of the King of Demons, the “Nine-Tailed Fox,” whose invasion of the human world has shattered years of peace between humans and demons.

Developed by Taiwanese indie game team 7Quark, in Yasha: Legends of the Demon Blade, players will follow three main characters, each fully voiced by leading Japanese voice actors, including the wielder of the Demon Blade and immortal ninja Shigure (Yoko Hikasa), the Oni Emissary Sara (Ayana Taketatsu), and Demon Samurai and master archer Taketora (Rikiya Koyama). Each with different combat styles based around their weapons and personalities, they will embark on a perilous journey to battle malevolent spirits in a violent cycle of life and death.
