Physical and digital copies will be distributed, though the PS4 and Xbox Series X versions will not receive a retail release. Spike Chunsoft will handle the Xbox Series X and PC versions, with the Steam page already live.
The Japanese release will include English subtitles, but details about a worldwide launch are pending. Mages will share further updates on the global release at a later date.
