Numerous JRPGs are set to make their way to video game stores for the week of June 28, 2015.

Many of the titles coming out this week may not resonate much with gamers in North America, but they are titles that have great followings in other parts of the world.

"Ar Nosurge Plus" is one of the more prominent titles being released this week. The game is actually a remake of a Playstation 3 title. Fortunately for fans, the game being released this week, which is headed to the PS Vita, will already come bundled together with the downloadable content that was previously available for its earlier version all the way up to September 26, 2014, according to Inquisitr. Presumably, any new downloadable content released past that date may no longer be part of the PS Vita remake.

Yet another JRPG set to make its debut on the Playstation 4 and PS Vita this week is "Whispering Willows." The game follows a character named Elena as she encounters numerous spirits within Willows Mansion. Elena also has the ability to project her spirit outside of her body, adding a unique twist to the gameplay of "Whispering Willows."

Aside from JRPGs, there are also some Japanese fighting games set to be released this week.

"J-Stars Victory VS +" is a new fighting game with a cast of characters featuring some familiar faces. The game includes several characters from the "Shonen Jump" manga series. This means players can choose characters from the "Dragon Ball" franchise, the "Hunter x Hunter" franchise and the "Naruto" franchise among many others, according to the official Playstation Blog.

Another fighting game set to come out this week is "BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma Extend." The popular 2D fighting game has been a staple on handhelds for years, and now fans can engage in action-packed battles on the big screen. The game will be coming out on the Playstation 3 and 4, PS Vita and the Xbox One.
