The Allure of JRPGs: A Growing Trend Among International Game Studios
In recent years, the charm of Japanese role-playing games (JRPGs) has captivated many international game studios, leading to a surge in successful projects inspired by this unique style. As we step into 2023, one title, Sea of Stars, has already won the hearts of players with its nostalgic homage to Chrono Trigger. Furthermore, Xenoblade Chronicles continues to generate excitement as it approaches its release in early 2024.
Anticipating the Release of a New RPG: Edge of Memories
Slated for release in 2025, a highly anticipated RPG titled Edge of Memories is set to redefine the genre. Developed by Midgar Studio, this game promises a distinctly unique experience. Not only does it feature a compelling narrative, but it also boasts contributions from notable figures in the gaming industry who have previously created several high-quality hits. In this game, players will assume the role of Eline, a Soul Whisperer on a quest across the land of Avaris to rescue spirits trapped by a mysterious dark force known as Corrosion. This dark entity is transforming humans and beasts into dangerous creatures.
Unlike the turn-based combat system seen in Edge of Eternity, Edge of Memories will adopt real-time action mechanics reminiscent of Xenoblade and Granblue Fantasy Relink. Players can execute impressive combo chains while engaging with two opposing forces simultaneously. Additionally, the game introduces the ability to transform into a Berserker, unleashing devastating finishing moves, along with a diverse character customization system. Another exciting element is the inclusion of Nekaroo, a creature that players can ride during their exploration of the game world.
Set to launch in the fall of 2025, Edge of Memories is already on many players’ Steam wishlists. Fans can follow the game’s development closely to stay updated on the latest information.
