Gravity Game Arise has postponed the Japanese physical release of Aeruta for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5. Both the standard boxed copy and the Collector’s Box now have a December 24 release date. The publisher announced the two-week delay on November 2 and cited manufacturing issues.
The Japanese digital versions for Switch, PS5 and PS4 are still scheduled for December 10, the previous boxed release date. The PC version is already on Steam. The publisher directed customers who preordered a physical copy to their retailer for details about their order.
Aeruta combines side-scrolling dungeon combat with running a bakery. The heroine Chaya takes a job at the shop after damaging its oven, and her search for ingredients leads into a larger adventure involving fragments of a crystal.
Ingredients gathered in dungeons can be used to make new kinds of bread. Running the counter means stocking shelves, serving customers and keeping the shop tidy. Earnings go toward repairing the bakery and improving Chaya’s abilities for her next trip.
