Here is an overview of the game with a gameplay trailer.
This is not a turn-based RPG like its predecessor but it is aimed at the same audience. It was already available to play on the Nintendo Switch but this announcement is related to the PS4 port which is promising all the post-launch content and 60 FPS support over the Nintendo Switch version.
While the game is only confirmed for Japan so far, Level 5 has usually localized most of their games for the Western audience so it is possible that Yo-Kai Academy Y also gets an English localization later down the line.
