Developer O.T.K Games and publisher Rainy Frog announced that the 2D action RPG Sword of the Vagrant is coming to consoles.
To be precise, it’ll be released for PS5, PS4, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox One, albeit a firm release date has not been announced.
The name may not ring a bell, because it has been released for PC via Steam in 2018 simply as “The Vagrant.” Incidentally, if you don’t care for the console version, it’s currently on sale for $1.19 on Steam, which is an absolute steal.
Incidentally, if you look at the game’s trailer below, you’ll be forgiven if you think this is a Vanillaware game. The similarities are certainly very evident.
