RPG Maker MV is coming to PS4, Switch and Xbox One

NIS America are bringing RPG Maker MV to the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One in 2019.

NIS America has confirmed that Kadokawa Coproration’s RPG game-making software will be released on console next year.

RPG Maker MV was originally released on PC in 2015, and helps aspiring game developers to create narratives and RPG gameplay mechanics using a robust suite of game-making tools. The tool set covers everything from dialogue and characters, to combat and the creation of overworlds and maps.

The RPG Maker MV Player app will also be released on all platforms as a free download so that players without the game can download user-created RPGs free of charge.

RPG Maker MV will also get a Limited Edition release on all platforms that includes a soundtrack and log book.

RPG Maker MV Limited Edition contents:

• A physical copy of the game
• Creator’s Log
• Official Soundtrack
• Collector’s Box

We’re pretty excited for this. We dabbled with some of the games created in RPG Maker Fes – which was released on the Nintendo 3DS last year –  and was impressed by some of the quirky stories and miniature adventures we discovered.
