The mysterious Voice of Cards: The Isle Dragon Roars has broken cover and been given a release date for next month by Square Enix.

A card-based RPG, the game takes place in a world of swords and sorcery. You’re a bounty hunter, setting off on a journey to slay a dragon threatening the land and its people for glory and riches. Along the way, you’ll meet a friendly monster named Mar and a black witch named Melanie. You’ll meet a cast of unique characters as part of your journey too. Some of these include members of the Ivory Order and even the Queen of Castle Advent, ruler of the land.

The whole game is told through the medium of cards. A disembodied voice acts as your game master, and all items, weapons and even the map uses this dice and card framework. If you missed the initial announcement, the game’s creative director is none-other than NieR creator Yoko Taro.

To that end, there’s lots of nods to that and previous series Drakengard. This includes a bunch of DLC that lets your swap the costumes of your party to those from NieR Replicant. And there’s also NieR and Drakengard boards, dice and other cosmetics you can get.

You can check out a trailer for the game below, and a demo is available now on the PlayStation Store. Voice of Cards: The Isle Dragon Roars will launch on PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and PC on October 28.
