After more than 30 years, the day many of us thought might never come has finally arrived: Terranigma is officially returning!
Clear River Games, working in cooperation with Square Enix, has announced a modern re-release of Quintet’s beloved action RPG. Terranigma is expected to arrive in early 2027 for Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC through Steam and GOG. Both digital and physical releases are planned.
The new edition preserves the pixel art, music and action RPG gameplay of the original while adding a selection of upgrades, tweaks and bonus features (the exact additions have yet to be revealed).
Original character designer Kamui Fujiwara is also involved, contributing new key artwork, in-game designs and feedback during production.
This release will bring Terranigma to North America officially for the first time! And of course bring it back to the rest of the world also on modern consoles!
For decades, Terranigma has remained trapped on its original Super Nintendo and Super Famicom cartridges. Its story of creation and destruction, unforgettable soundtrack and beautiful world have kept it alive through communities like ours. Seeing Ark awaken once again on modern systems is something truly special.
And… if you can believe it, you can add Terranigma to your Steam wishlist now! Never through to be typing Steam and Terranigma in one sentence…
We will share more information as Clear River Games reveals the release date, physical editions and new features.
UPDATE: The trailer has been taken offline by Clear River Games, for now, due to a potential dispute on it containing a fan made rearrangement of the music, without their permission.
