Torrance, Calif. — February 1, 2024 — Aksys Games announced four new titles coming to Nintendo Switch™ as well as updates to other games in development at the “All Aksys” event today on their official Twitch channel, AksysGames.
 
New forthcoming titles include:
 
Tokyo Xanadu eX+ (NSW/June 2024) – The popular action role-playing game developed by Nihon Falcom comes to Nintendo Switch! 10 years ago, a colossal earthquake devastated Tokyo and changed the lives of its inhabitants forever. The city has since been rebuilt and life has slowly returned to a semblance of normalcy. However, behind the veil of this newly rebuilt metropolis lies another world, one with a sinister secret. The earthquake that originally destroyed Tokyo was actually caused by the emergence of a mysterious and lethal shadow world known as Eclipse. Now, action must be taken to thwart the legions of Eclipse and ensure the protection of peace!
 
A 4-CD set featuring all 88 songs from the Tokyo Xanadu eX+ soundtrack will be available exclusively on the Aksys Online Store.
 
Despera Drops (NSW/2025) - In the summer of 2028, Mika Amamine, studying abroad at a university in Bologna, Italy, visits Rome for a short trip with friends to celebrate the end of exams. However, during that trip, she encounters a murder incident and is subsequently arrested as a suspect. While being transported in a police vehicle, it suddenly overturns in an accident, freeing Mika along with six other criminals and they all become fugitives. Mysterious attackers appear, targeting the unique “power” that Mika possesses, and the group finds themselves pursued by both the police and the attackers. The secret hidden within Mika’s power, the identity of the attackers, and the truth behind the murder incident that started it all… Can they unravel these mysteries and reclaim a normal life?
 
Radiant Tale -Fanfare- (NSW/Summer 2024) – The fandisk for "Radiant Tale" includes all-new stories, including sugary sweet after-stories that follow the happy endings with the five love interests in the original game, as well as new routes with two side characters following the normal ending of the common route. Additionally, the fandisk contains a collection of mini-episodes of events that occurred throughout the original main story, allowing fans to further enjoy its contents.
 
Tales from Toyotoki: Arrival of the Witch (NSW, PS5™/Summer 2024) – Hikaru Nishime travels to live with his grandfather on a remote island, but discovers to his dismay that his grandfather has gone abroad.

Blazing Strike (PS4™, PS5, NSW, PC/Summer 2024) - Inspired by classic arcade fighting game series from industry greats such as Capcom and SNK, the upcoming 2D fighting game from developer RareBreed Makes Games evokes the excitement and nostalgia of 2D pixel art genre pioneers while incorporating a unique games system with modern mechanics.

Be ready, for when a spirit does attack, crucial mistakes mean certain death. Solve the mysterious deaths with help from many of the original characters from the first game, Spirit Hunter: Death Mark.
 
Tengoku Struggle -Strayside- (NSW/April 4) – From the team that created Olympia Soirée comes a comedic battle fantasy set in a place where the living and the dead mingle, and sinners are pitted against each other in eternal battle.
