Nacon Unveils JRPG Edge of Memories with Star-Studded Team

Nacon has announced Edge of Memories, its latest JRPG project developed by French studio Midgar Studio, which boasts an impressive lineup of industry professionals. The game takes place in the same universe as 2021’s Edge of Eternity but on a different continent.

Midgar Studio, named after the iconic city from Final Fantasy 7, has drawn inspiration from classic titles in the genre to create its unique “French touch” JRPG. Edge of Memories features a turn-based battle system similar to Final Fantasy and a soundtrack composed by renowned composer Yasunori Mitsuda.

The game’s development team includes character designer Raita Kazama, illustrator behind Xenoblade Chronicles X, and writer Sawako Natori, known for his work on NieR and Drakengard. Mitsuru Yokoyama, the combat designer from Final Fantasy XV, will also contribute to the real-time action gameplay.

The biggest difference between Edge of Eternity and Edge of Memories lies in their battle systems. While Edge of Eternity uses a turn-based system with ATB, Edge of Memories employs a dynamic action combat system, allowing players to execute combos and transform into a Berserker to gain powerful abilities.
