If you’ve been waiting for XSEED’s English translation of Nihon Falcom’s Brandish: The Dark Revenant, you might not have to wait that much longer.

Tom, one of the company’s localization specialists, posted on their blog regarding the game’s translation status:

“I really wish I could communicate through osmosis or something just how awesome this game is, because it’s impossible to do it justice simply by describing it. Suffice it to say, it’s a PSP game (planned for compatibility with Vita and PSTV, but still!) that we’re willing to release in 2014 solely because we really like it, and we really want you guys to be able to experience it.

I’d say if you’re a fan of the Etrian Odyssey series, enjoy the tough but fair difficulty of Dark Souls, or appreciate any of Falcom’s other action RPG offerings, you need to give this game a shot when it releases sometime… next month? (Fingers crossed!)”

While it’s hard to compare the game to Dark Souls (everyone does that now),  it has a reputation of being a pretty challenging dungeon crawler.

We’ll keep you guys posted.
