NACON and Midgar Studio have unveiled their latest project, Edge of Memories, set in the beloved universe of Edge of Eternity. This new JRPG promises to captivate players with its rich storytelling and dynamic gameplay when it launches in Fall 2025 on PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (Steam).
Edge of Memories takes players to the continent of Avaris, where a devastating plague known as the Corrosion is transforming wildlife and humans into monstrous abominations. Players will step into the shoes of Eline, a young Soul Whisperer with the ability to heal the afflicted. As she roams the land, Eline’s journey will explore themes of survival, adaptation, and the quest for origins in a world ravaged by disease.
Developed with Unreal® Engine 5, Edge of Memories offers a vibrant and immersive world, blending the depth of JRPGs with the artistic flair of French animation. The game features contributions from renowned artists, including character designer Raita Kazama (Xenoblade Chronicles™ X), writer Sawako Natori (NieR™), singer Emi Evans (NieR™ / NieR: Automata™), and composers Yasunori Mitsuda (Chrono Trigger® / Xenogears™) and Mariam Abounnasr (Xenoblade Chronicles™ 3 / ONINAKI™).
Edge of Memories shifts from the strategic turn-based combat of its predecessor to a more dynamic, real-time action RPG experience. Players will need to master Eline’s abilities, execute spectacular combos with her companions, and harness the power of the Berserk to overcome formidable foes.
“We are thrilled to expand the Edge of franchise with a new installment that takes on a fresh artistic direction and marks a turning point in gameplay,” said Jérémy Zeler-Maury, CEO of Midgar Studio. “As true JRPG enthusiasts, we have poured a lot of love into this project, and we can’t wait to share it with both fans of the genre and newcomers alike.”
Edge of Memories will be available on PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (Steam) in Fall 2025. Stay tuned for more updates and prepare to embark on an epic adventure in the world of Heryon.
