Recommended Videos

Experience announced during their 10th anniversary event this weekend that they’re releasing New Interpretation Stranger of Sword City, an updated version of the dungeon crawler RPG for PS Vita. [Thanks, Game Jouhou.]

 

Here are some additional tidbits about the updated version of the game:

 

  • Elsa from Students of the Round will make an appearance as part of a dungeon event.

 

  • Additional new classes in “Clocker” and “Puppeteer.”

 

  • New “Guard Counter” system.

 

  • Battle, base, dungeon, 25 item, and 70 areas will see adjustments and improvements.

 

  • In addition to Clocker and Puppeteer, the game will have 11 classes compared to the 8 in the original version.

 

  • Clockers are mage knights that are able to control time. Part of their bodies are mechanized and they’re able to control time for multiple actions at once.

 

  • Puppeteers use skills with “suggestions” on the battle field. For example, if a leader monster retreats to the back of the pack, you’ll be able to put a Suggestion on it and make it go to the front row.

 

  • Another new feature is the “Subjugation Challenge.” This mode lets you get extra rewards for taking down enemies with an appropriate lineage class level.

 

  • As for the Guard Counter, it lets you see through an enemy attack for a chance to land your own powerful attack to knock them out in a hit.

 

  • New Soul Relief events will be added to certain NPCs.

 

The game is set for release on July 21, 2016 for PlayStation Vita. There will only be 5,000 first-print editions of the game, which features a novel written by Benny Matsuyama as a 5,000 yen bundle. Additionally, those with the previous version of the game can upgrade to the newer version for 1,800 yen.
