Over on PlayStation Blog,  Danny Miscevich of Aksys Games has announced that the publisher will be localizing Exist Archive: The Other Side of the Sky in North America. The Valkyrie Profile inspired JRPG developed by tri-Ace is set to release on October 18th, with both physical and digital releases for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita.

Miscevich notes the game will make it to European territories, but launch details are unknown as of now.

Exist Archive features a robust story as well as loads of side quests that fans of the JRPG genre have no doubt come to expect. tri-Ace continues the tradition of side-view dungeons a la Valkyrie Profile. Combat consists of a strategic combo system where each character’s attack corresponds to a button, and executing bigger combos dishes significant punishment to any foes unfortunate to stand in your way. Mixing attacks and changing party formation alters your skill development as well.
