The Japanese-inspired action RPG Yasha: Legends of the Demon Blade is set to launch on April 24. It's going to be available for the PC via Steam along with consoles PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and the Nintendo Switch.

A Real Challenge
While it is indeed good to know that there is now a release date for the game, it hasn’t been easy for the studio. In a statement, the studio shared that they faced not only external challenges but also internal ones. This resulted in the studio launching an emergency Kickstarter campaign so they would be able to get funding for the game’s final development phase. Fortunately, that campaign was not only successful but even exceeded its goal.
