Nacon and Midgar Studio, the team behind Edge of Eternity, have revealed Edge of Memories, a new action RPG with real-time combat, striking anime-inspired visuals, and a soundtrack featuring Emi Evans and Yasunori Mitsuda. It’s set to launch in Q4 2025 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam.
Edge of Memories: A world on the brink
The Corrosion, a devastating plague, has already consumed the Astryan continent. Now, Avaris—a once-thriving land of nomadic tribes—faces the same fate. Eline, a Soul Whisperer, fights to resist the infection, but after a fateful encounter, she gains a dangerous ability: the power to control the Corrosion within her own body.
With her mentor Ysoris and the shaman prince, Kanta, Eline must battle monstrous abominations and uncover the truth behind this apocalyptic force.
Fast, fluid combat
Edge of Memories delivers high-speed real-time combat where combos, tactics, and teamwork are key:
- Chain rapid strikes and powerful techniques to overwhelm enemies.
- Customise allies and unleash their skills at crucial moments.
- Tap into Eline’s rage to transform into a Berserker, landing brutal finishing moves.
A hauntingly beautiful world
Avaris is a land of contrasts—stunning yet scarred by the Corrosion. The world evolves as you progress, altering landscapes and unlocking new paths.
- Ride a Nekaroo – Traverse the vast lands on this agile feline companion.
- Explore breathtaking locations – From sunlit shores to frozen peaks, all brought to life with Unreal Engine 5.
Every quest in Edge of Memories adds to the story, shaping the characters and their relationships. As nomadic tribes struggle for survival, some choose to flee, while others embrace life in the face of death.
A soundtrack to remember
Composed by Cédric Menendez, the dynamic and adaptive score is enriched by Emi Evans’ haunting vocals. The game’s finale features a theme by legendary composer Yasunori Mitsuda (Chrono Trigger, Xenoblade Chronicles, Sea of Stars).
With its gripping story, fluid combat, and stunning presentation, Edge of Memories is shaping up to be an unforgettable experience. Keep an eye out for more details as we get closer to launch.
