Operation Abyss Crawls To North America And Europe This April

Sci-fi dungeon-crawling RPG Operation Abyss: New Tokyo Legacy will be released for the PlayStation Vita on April 14th in North America and April 17th in Europe, NIS America announced this morning. You can watch a new trailer for the game—which is developed by the Demon Gaze studio—below.

Operation Abyss takes place in the near future, with Tokyo under the constant threat of genetically-engineered monsters called variants, and portals that lead to a mysterious dimension called the Abyss. In response, the government establishes the Code Physics Agency to investigate, and as part of this team, you need to trek through dungeons, evade traps, and fight monsters.

While Operation Abyss is coming to the West in April, in Japan a sequel to the game is currently in the works. It’s titled Operation Babel, and you can read about it here. That game is planned for release in Japan on April 30th.

NIS America have also confirmed the Operation Abyss is compatible with the PlayStation TV device.
