Hong Kong – June 10, 2021 – Independent developer and publisher, Eastasiasoft Limited, today announced that a demo of top-down action-adventure Trigger Witch will be playable on Xbox One during the Summer Game Fest event, starting at midnight local time on June 15th. This marks the first opportunity for the general public to try the game on Xbox One ahead of its release in July.
Trigger Witch is a stylized 2D twin-stick action game from the creators of Reverie, set in an odd open world where magic is outdated and firearms are the new way of life. Players assume the role of Colette, a prospective graduate from the Stock, an academy for Witchcraft and Triggery. After a mysterious man invades her realm, events are set in motion that turn Colette’s life upside-down, casting her as the sole heroine with enough firepower to restore peace.
In close partnership with developer Rainbite, Eastasiasoft Limited will publish Trigger Witch for release on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, PS4 and PS5 in July 2021. In addition to release on digital storefronts, physical editions will also be available for preorder through online retail partner Playasia. Further details on Limited Edition preorder dates, platforms and contents will be announced soon.
