The Necromancer’s Tale Hits PS5, Xbox Series and Switch 2 on June 24

A celebrated PC gothic RPG known for a sprawling, choice-driven story now reaches a wider audience.

Overview

  • The Necromancer’s Tale, which announced its console date Wednesday after last year’s PC debut, will launch June 24 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and Nintendo Switch 2 with a new trailer.
  • Pre-orders are open on PlayStation and Xbox, with Switch 2 pre-order details listed as coming soon.
  • The story spans more than 400,000 words with over 180 characters, multiple endings, and an estimated 25 to 50 hours per playthrough depending on side content and auto-resolve use.
  • Players study forbidden rituals, raise undead allies, and fight in tactical turn-based encounters set in a 1733 world near Venice where a trust system makes dialogue choices carry real consequences.
  • Official materials credit Psychic Software as developer and Silver Lining Interactive as publisher, though one report lists “Psychic Games,” reflecting minor inconsistency in attribution across coverage.
