Idea Factory International has announced that it will be bringing the Switch version of Dragon Star Varnir to the west during Summer 2021.

On Switch, the game will come with all previously released DLC for free — this includes various equipment and level cap unlocks. There’ll also be no altered artwork, unlike the initial PS4 release.

In North America, Dragon Star Varnir will be launching both digitally and physically, with the latter being handled primarily by Limited Run Games — preorders start on June 15. A physical European release hasn’t been mentioned yet, though it’s unlikely considering previous Idea Factory International LRG releases like Mary Skelter 2.

Dragon Star Varnir story overview via Idea Factory International:

In a world where the bones of an ancient beast tower over the land…

The Knight Zephy is part of an order whose role is to hunt down witches – people seen as cursed beings for giving birth to dragons.

He is brutally mauled by a dragon on one mission, but as he gasps his last breath, two witches save him by feeding him dragon blood – a death-defying magical substance that also grants him new witch powers.

Their fates now intertwined, Zephy reluctantly joins the witches against a slew of enemies: an Empire out to destroy his kind, ruthless dragon hunters, and a witch more powerful than any in existence.

Can they fight all this and save themselves, or will his new allies succumb to the dragon’s curse…?
