Additionally, Experience made an announcement about the worldwide sales of the series itself. They said that the series has topped the 100,000 mark in worldwide sales. They want to commemorate this milestone via what they call the “100,000 Sales Achievement Campaign”. This event is happening from February 28th to March 6th.

The developer has also given an overview of Stranger of Sword City Revisited:
“From the present day, to the parallel world. Survive in the land of polar night! The airplane you were travelling on vanished mysteriously, without a trace. You awaken to an unfamiliar starry night sky. It is the Sword City Escario, where shining butterflies dance… Before you lies a land of strange creatures, fearsome monsters, and countless mysterious labyrinths. You are the Chosen One: The Stranger of Sword City.
Stranger of Sword City Revisited uses the previously released by NIS America PS Vita version of Stranger of Sword City as the base of the game. Though, with the additional content of new classes, reworked combat & gameplay system, items and additional dungeon players will be able to enjoy a different experience from the original game!
*The Story will be mostly similar to the original title, though there are new additional events.”
