US publisher Mastiff LLC has announced that it will ship La Pucelle: Tactics for PlayStation 2 in North America in early May. The Nippon Ichi-developed strategy RPG is set in medieval Europe, with humans disguised as monsters and vice versa. The story follows a 16-year old girl who recently passed exorcism exams, as well as her friends, who are all part of a demon-hunting squad. Abilities include purifying defiled ground and enemies, strengthening items in real-time, attacking in formation with allies and turning enemies into allies. La Pucelle: Tactics shares a similar battle system to that of Disgaea: Hour of Darkness, which was also developed by Nippon Ichi.

The game was released in 2002 in Japan as La Pucelle: Hikari no Seijo Densetsu (The Maiden: Legend of the Saint of Light).
