Brigandine: Abyss Launching in August

Happinet and NIS America announced a release date for strategy RPG Brigandine: Abyss. The game will release worldwide on PC via Steam on August 26 (August 27 in Japan), 2026, and for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2 on August 27, 2026. A physical Deluxe Edition will be available in North America and Europe for PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch 2 that includes a mini art book and digital soundtrack.

Brigandine: Abyss follows the 2020 revival of the series through Brigandine: The Legend of Runersia. The game is set in a brand-new world where hundreds of years prior, the Abyssloa Empire was stopped by the power of the arcane Brigandine. However, a new empire rises, seeking to conquer the world. The game offers six different story campaigns as they attempt to stand against the empire while managing their resources. In addition to the story campaigns, the game also features a Missions Mode, which lets players control one of twenty-four factions, each with their own win conditions.

Gameplay is divided into two phases and retains the series’ traditional hex-grid maps. The Organization Phase lets players organize troops and resources, while the Attack Phase sees units take to the field.
