Terranigma video game remaster announcement

Overview

Swedish publisher Clear River Games announced a remaster of the classic Super Famicom action RPG ‘Terranigma’ (Tenchi Souzou). Following five years of negotiations with IP holder Square Enix, the project aims to preserve the original experience while adding quality-of-life improvements. Character designer Kamui Fujiwara noted that while this remaster is a success, other titles from the era face hurdles because the original developer, Quintet, no longer exists.

Details regarding a scheduled global release date of January 14, 2027, have been confirmed. The remaster will be available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC. Players will have access to an ‘Original Mode’ to preserve the 1995 experience and an ‘Arranged Mode’ featuring a rewind function, mini-map, and adjusted difficulty.

Physical editions were also revealed, ranging from a Standard Edition to a premium ‘Gaia Edition’ priced at $199.99, which includes a Yomi figure, a music box replica of Pandora’s Box, and an artbook. A Steelbook edition has also been announced.
