Astonishia Story:
Release Date: 11th February 2027 | Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5 & Windows PC
Follow Lloyd von Reuental on his quest to recover a stolen relic and regain his honor in this tale of prejudice, manipulation, and duty. The Elven Queen is set on claiming the powers of an ancient god, and it’ll be up to you to stop her! Master grid-based battles, recruit mercenaries, and do whatever it takes to see your duty through, even if that means saving the world in the process.
The Grimm Reapress and the Drearytale Monster:
Release Date: TBC | Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5 & Windows PC
Step into a hand-drawn fairytale, one book at a time in The Grimm Reapress and the Drearytale Monster. In this world, a magical disease known as Paper Mortis turns people into picture books, and picture books into monsters.
Featuring stunning art and a poignant, tragic tale, The Grimm Reapress and the Drearytale Monster follows Mono, a young girl whose sister contracts this horrible malady. She’ll do whatever it takes to save her sister from an incurable illness—including working with Mar, a monster hell-bent on vengeance. It’ll take nothing less for her to traverse the Libratarium where her sister is kept.
Dive into different storybooks to learn the tales of the girls who became them. You’ll solve puzzles, fight bosses, and do whatever it takes to track down your sister and save her from this incurable disease. Drawn by hand to look just like a picture book, The Grimm Reapress and the Drearytale Monster is one fairytale you won’t want to miss.

Urban legends come alive in Yomawari: Night Alone and Yomawari: Midnight Shadows, now collected in one title!
Traverse the haunting world of Yomawari: Night Alone as a young girl searches for her sister, or share in the terrors that schoolgirls Yui and Haru face in Yomawari: Midnight Shadows.
