Tactics RPG ‘Demonschool’ Coming Later This Year to PC, Consoles [Trailer]

We’ve mentioned Necrosoft Games’ tactics RPG Demonschool a couple of times over the years (most recently this past June), but the question is just when we’ll be seeing it. Luckily, thanks to the recent Twitch Galaxies Gaming Showcase, we’ll finally be seeing Demonschool later this year for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.

“After a few delays, we have finally shaped Demonschool into the game we set out to create,” said Brandon Sheffield, creative director of Necrosoft Games. “We’d like to thank our audience for supporting us through the development process and can’t wait for them to fish out every little detail the island has to offer.”

A mix of Persona, Shin Megami Tensei, and Italian horror cinema, Demonschool puts you at a haunted island university as bold freshman Faye, the last practicing demon hunter from a legendary family. Encounter the supernatural in investigations alongside newfound allies, battle possessed humans, demons, and other creeps in grid-based battles, and seal the monsters away before the human world is lost forever.

Hunt gruesome devils and bosses inspired by ‘60s and ’70s Italian horror cinema and Japanese horror manga as 2D and 3D realms clash, washed in the fluorescent hues of JRPG giants. Master a chess-like tactical board inspired by Into the Breach and form strategies to take down Hell’s deadliest creatures.

Befriend, romance, and recruit 15 different playable characters, each with distinct abilities to strengthen the team. Boost the party’s skills by balancing class schedules, training, extracurriculars, side quests, and more, all while maintaining a stellar GPA.

Look for Demonschool in Q3 2025. A demo is currently available via Steam.
