Yasha Legends of the Demon Blade Release Date PS5 PS4

Yasha: Legends of the Demon Blade has been making waves in the action RPG space for a while now, but the title's just been hit with its third delay in the space of one year or so.

It's not for the reasons you might expect, though. As Taiwanese developer 7Quark explains on social media, the studio and its partners have simply been overwhelmed with pre-orders for the game's physical limited edition.

"The demand for the limited edition on various platforms far exceeded our expectations," it writes. Basically, production needs to increase, and 7Quark itself has to "handle additional approval processes".

The team's now using this as an opportunity to try and ensure the smoothest possible launch on all platforms — including PS5 and PS4.

Previously slated for the 24th April, Yasha: Legends of the Demon Blade is now targeting a 15th May release date.

Again, this one's looked promising for quite some time, drawing comparisons to games like Hades because of its story and lore-related roguelike elements.

There are three playable characters: the immortal swordswoman Shigure, the plucky monster child Sara, and the demon samurai Taketora. Each of them come with their own playstyles and abilities to master, alongside their own storylines.

Here's the latest gameplay trailer, for your viewing pleasure:
