A demo for tactical RPG Monark is now available on PS4, PS5, and Switch — despite the trailer including PC in the title, no demo is available for that platform.

The demo includes all of Chapter 1, with progress transferable to the full release. NIS America has also confirmed that PS4 copies of the game will be upgradeable to the PS4 version for free.

Head on over to Monark’s official website for more information, which now includes character bios and gameplay systems. Additionally, an interview with game director Fuyuki Hayashi is available via the NIS America blog.

Monark launches for PS4, PS5, Switch, and PC via Steam on February 25, 2022 in Europe.

Monark overview via NISA:

How far will you go to save the ones you love? Could you face the threats that surround you? Could you face yourself?

Your world is plunged into madness when the mysterious and deadly Mist surrounds Shin Mikado Academy. In order to save your friends, you enter the Otherworld, a Daemon-filled dimension beyond the real world. Within this enigmatic realm, you must learn to harness your Authority of Vanity and conjure a battalion of Fiends, whose power comes from the Ego of their master.

Develop your Ego through various psychological tests to enhance the power of your Fiends, and lead your forces into battle to fight with and against the seven “Pactbearers” that are corrupting the academy. Embrace the power of your madness to gain strength, but take care not to delve too far, lest you risk losing yourself. Fellow students and instructors will lend you their aid in your quest to resolve the anomalies throughout the campus.
