My Thoughts
I am absolutely thrilled about this announcement! Masato Kato and Yasunori Mitsuda together again is a dream come true for any fan of the genre. I have never been a big fan of turn-based games, but the history behind this team is undeniable. This duo helped define classics like Chrono Trigger and Xenogears.
I actually missed out on Chrono Trigger when it first launched because of my dislike for JRPGs. However, the incredible creative talent involved here makes me want to give this one a real shot. Another Eden Begins looks like the perfect entry point to see what I have been missing. It is high on my list for summer 2026!
