PlayStation 4 and 5 versions of the DanMachi: Battle Chronicle free-to-play action RPG have been announced, with the game’s console release date set for 2024.
The news comes not long after the game’s PC and mobile launch on August 24.
The main draw of DanMachi: Battle Chronicle (or DanChro) is its 3D nature, with players controlling DanMachi characters like Bell and Ais in third-person combat against monsters as they venture into Dungeons. Outside of allowing players to re-experience the DanMachi anime adaptation’s story, the game also offers eight-player free-for-alls called Magic Stone Contests and the Battle Arena mode, which pits players’ parties against each other with autoplay gameplay.
The game received one million downloads by the day after release, and reached the top of the free app charts on App Store and Google Play in Japan a few days later.
DanChro is currently having a collaboration with VTuber agency Hololive, with several Hololive members livestreaming the game between August 31 to September 15 JST. At the time of writing, the next upcoming stream will be from Oozaru Subaru on September 5 at 7 PM JST.
