A demo of MONARK – an upcoming JRPG published by NIS America – can now be downloaded from the Nintendo Switch eShop. The title will be officially released next month in February and can now be digitally pre-ordered on the store as well.
In addition to this, the publisher has shared a brand new trailer of the game (which you can view above) – showcasing what exactly it’s all about. Here’s some backstory, if you aren’t familiar with it:
You suddenly awaken in Shin Mikado Academy.
Before you is a barrier separating the campus from the rest of the outside world.
Within the academy grounds are the madness-inducing Mist, cryptic phone calls that connect to the Otherworld, and seven Pactbearers–each with their own Daemonic Authority ruled by their Egos.
To resist the irrationality surrounding you, you acquire the Authority of Vanity, a Daemonic power that subsists off of your Ego and madness.
Monark will also receive a Limited Edition physical release, which you can learn more about in our previous post. Will you be downloading this demo and giving it a go? Tell us down below.
