Knights enter Stings dual screen nightmare in July

Remember Dept. Heaven Episode IV, better known as Knights in the Nightmare? Sting announced their new was coming out this year. Now, the official page has been updated with a firm release date. Japan will get the turn based RTS on July 17.

The genre sounds a bit confusing, but that’s what Sting calls Knights in the Nightmare. As you can see from the screenshot on the right there is a familiar looking isometric battle grid, but you attack/defend in real time.

The plot is still mostly unknown as is if a North American publisher will pick it up. Atlus? Yeah, they’re the most likely candidate, but if you’re brave enough to import you have the date.
