NIS America has announced that it will be localizing the strategy RPG NAtURAL DOCtRINE. This title was released in Japan back in February, and will arrive in North America and Europe sometime this year. It will be released on the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, and Vita systems, supports both the cross-play and cross-save features, and includes competitive multiplayer modes.

NAtURAL DOCtRINE is a turn-based strategy RPG that focuses heavily on positioning and formations, as battles will take place between large numbers of characters. It tells the story of a group of explorers who delve into a system of mines and caves to acquire a valuable material called Pluton, but run afoul of a powerful force of intelligent non-human creatures. While the story is told from the perspective of the humans, non-humans will be playable in the multiplayer mode.
