# Omen of Sorrow coming to PS5, Switch

This “expanded release” of the game will include revised story mode content, and new endings added to arcade mode. The September 2021-released Xbox One version will also receive this content via a free update. And cross-play online multiplayer will soon be made available across all versions of the game published by Eastasiasoft.

Given that the original PlayStation 4 release is published by Soedesco and the Epic Games Store version is self-published by the developer, it is unclear whether they will support the new content or cross-play. Eastasiasoft will publish the PlayStation 4 version in Asia, however, which will support the new elements.

Pre-orders for PlayStation 5 and Switch physical editions will open on February 24 at 7:00 a.m. PT / 10:00 a.m. ET via Play-Asia. Only 2,000 limited editions will be produced for Switch, and 1,000 for PlayStation 5. Standard copies will be available as an open pre-order.

Here is an overview of the game, via Eastasiasoft:
