During Another Eden Begins’ announcement at the February 2026 Nintendo Direct, it was revealed that Studio Prisma, a subsidiary of the original game’s developer Wright Flyer Studios, would be working on the remake. Led by Shinnosuke Hirasawa, who served as one of the producers on the original Another Eden, the studio promises a brand-new experience that remains true to the original, and is more than “just a Switch 2 port of the mobile game.”
In an interview with Famitsu, Hirasawa touched on some of Another Eden Begins’ new features. According to him, multiple systems have been built from the ground up, including exploration, combat, and character leveling. The story will also be fully voiced.
“The story is fully voiced, and we’ve redesigned everything from scratch—field exploration, battles, the character development system—developing the game as a brand-new RPG title rather than a port of the mobile version.
There will be 18 companions (excluding the protagonist Aldo) who join you on your journey. You’ll meet them in towns and dungeons, and as you help each other, you’ll also get to fight together. We’ve prepared thrilling stories for each of the characters, which is another highlight of the game.” – Shinnosuke Hirasawa
Another Eden Begins will also include a New Game+ mode, which is a brand-new feature for the series. In addition to character progress carrying over, the mode includes ten different “what if” scenarios that branch out based on decisions you could have made in the main story. Some of these scenarios will introduce story developments that Hirasawa says are a must for players of the original Another Eden game. Apart from the extra narratives, certain companions can only be recruited in New Game+.
Another Eden Begins is set to release on Summer 2026 for Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, and Windows (Steam).
