XSEED releasing Brandish: The Dark Revenant this year in North America

XSEED revealed their E3 games line up this afternoon, and among the titles listed was an official announcement of Brandish: The Dark Revenant, a PSP dungeon crawler from Kiseki and Ys series developer Falcom. Right now it is tentatively listed for a release in 2014. Read the rest of the press details and provided screenshots below.

Brandish puts players in the role of swordsman Ares Toraernos as he climbs his way through over 40 sprawling floors of monsters, traps and puzzles in an attempt to escape a long-forgotten underground labyrinth. Along the way he repeatedly encounters his arch-rival, the voluptuous sorceress Dela Delon, who’s just as interested in claiming the bounty on his head as she is in escaping the maze herself. With each floor boasting unrelenting enemies fought in real time, elaborate booby traps, ancient treasures, tricky puzzles and thousand-year-old mysteries to solve, Brandish promises to keep players fighting for survival till the bitter end.
