Initially scheduled for an early 2021 release date, a fair expectation would be around February or March. We didn’t think “early” meant July, as a new trailer just dropped, confirming its new release window of July 2021 (I guess you can make an argument for “early” that it’s not Q4 2021).

Now seen in their publisher’s website, the surprise announcement got me excited knowing that summer isn’t too empty after all.

Check out our demo impressions of Cris Tales, where its impressive time magic mechanic that affect both in-battle and the game world revitalizes the classic JRPG turn-based battle system. It is available for download on PSN, Nintendo eShop, Xbox Live, and on Steam.

Cris Tales is now available for pre-order and its collector’s edition looks amazing.
