In June last year, Bandai Namco announced SAND LAND, an action RPG based on Akira Toriyama’s classic short manga series, being developed by Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl and One Piece Odyssey developer ILCA. Now, the Japanese publisher has announced when the game will launch.
With a new trailer (which you can view below), Bandai Namco has revealed that SAND LAND will launch for PC and consoles in Japan on April 25, and a day later, on April 26, in the rest of the world. Pre-orders have gone live on all platforms, with Bandai Namco also offering a $70 Deluxe Edition, which includes pre-order bonuses and four pieces of DLC, and a $130 Collector’s Edition, which also comes with a customizable Beelzebub figurine by S.H. Figurarts.
SAND LAND will follow the story of Fiend Prince Beelzebub, his chaperone Thief, and the fearless Sheriff Rao as they head out into the desert on a quest to find the Legendary Spring. Players will control Beelzebub’s powers, take on a variety of enemies, and most importantly, build a variety of tanks and vehicles and use them for traversal and combat.
Upon its launch, SAND LAND will be available on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
