Through a trailer, available on the cover of this news, NIS America has unveiled the European release date of Monark, the new JRPG created by the same team that worked on the series Shin Megami Tensei by Atlus. This video, together with that of the American version, also confirm the release on the international market, with the Japanese version coming soon.
As previously announced a few months ago, this new work will be released on February 25 in Europe, while in North America it will arrive a few days earlier, on the 22nd of the same month. The arrival has been confirmed on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch and PC, through the Steam platform.
The story sees the adventures of a protagonist who awakens inside the mysterious Shin Mikado Academy, a place from which it is not possible to leave due to a field that separates it from the rest of the world. In addition, the presence of a fog makes all people crazy, creating very intense situations for everyone.
The setting it looks very similar to that of the famous Atlus game, whose release date has just been unveiled, thanks also to the presence of many developers who have given life to Shin Megami Tensei. The setting of the school returns, even if seen in a completely different way, as the only place that can be explored by the protagonists.

Monark will be released in Japan on October 14th, with a release date confirmed by NIS America also for Europe and North America, after an initial reveal trailer of the international version. This video also shows some of the characters that will be present in the story, along with the motivations that push them to perform their actions.
To be able to survive and move forward it will be necessary to exploit the power of one’s own Ego, so that you can grow your own Fiends, which will help us in the fights. To complete it all there is an incredibly intricate character design, which mixed with the now evocative setting, increases the anticipation for this new JRPG.
