GrimGrimoire OnceMore for PS4 & Switch Gets First Trailer Showing Vanillaware’s Gorgeous Art

Following yesterday’s reveal, Nippon Ichi Software released the first trailer of the upcoming rea-time strategy JRPG GrimGrimoire OnceMore.

The trailer provides the first look at the remastered gameplay of the classic by Vanillaware, and gives us a chance to enjoy the developer’s trademark charming art that looks even better in high resolution.

You can check it out below.

GrimGrimoire OnceMore will release in Japan on July 28, for PS4 and Nintendo Switch.

If you’re not familiar with the original GrimGrimoire, it was originally released in 2007 for PlayStation 2. This new remaster includes plenty of new elements, on top of higher-resolution visuals and wide-screen format.

At the moment, NIS America (which also published the original game in North America) hasn’t announced a western release, so we’ll have to wait and see whether this game is brought over, but I would be surprised if it isn’t.

If you’re not familiar with Vanillaware, it’s a niche but extremely respected developer well-known for its beautiful 2D art (as you can easily see for yourself in the trailer). Their most recent game is 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim.
