'Xak II: Rising of the Red Moon', a classic PC-88 RPG, is set to release on Nintendo Switch on November 7th, 2024. This reissue is part of D4 Enterprise's EGGCONSOLE series of classic game rereleases. However, the game will not include English text options.
Key points about the release:
1. Original release: Xak II was first launched in 1990 for MSX, PC-88, and PC-98 systems.
2. Switch version features: It will include a gallery, an English "how to play" section, and English menus.
3. Gameplay: Unlike its predecessor, Xak II introduces sword-swinging combat and jumping mechanics.
4. Story: Set three years after the original Xak, players control Latok Kart on a quest to stop evil minions from summoning a demon named Zamu Gospel.
While this release might appeal to fans of classic JRPGs and those with knowledge of Japanese, the lack of full English text options may limit its accessibility for many Western players.
