This past November, 7QUARK launched a new Kickstarter campaign to fund the final stages of development for Yasha: Legends of the Demon Blade. The $51,391 funding goal was quickly met and exceeded, meaning that development continues unabated for all platforms. Those who back the game on Kickstarter will receive a digital copy, along with other goodies like 4K wallpapers, digital soundtracks and artbooks, and much more.
Players may try out the free Steam demo for a sneak peek. In the demo, players can experience the game as its three protagonists: Shigure, Sara, and Taketora. These characters are voiced by renowned Japanese voice actors Yoko Hikasa, Ayana Taketatsu, and Rikiya Koyama, respectively.
Lastly, here’s an overview of the game, via 7QUARK:
Set in the Edo period, Yasha: Legends of the Demon Blade is a Japanese-style action RPG featuring roguelite mechanics. The story follows the invasion of the mortal realm by the sovereign of all demons, Nine-Tailed Fox, shattering centuries of coexistence between humans and demons.
Players take on the roles of three protagonists—Ninja Girl, Oni Emissary, and Demon Samurai—each wielding utterly distinct weapons including the Demon Blade, Dual Blades, and Bow. Battling countless fiends, they embark on a journey through cycles of life and death to restore peace.
