Publisher Nacon and developer Midgar Studio will release a demo for action RPG Edge of Memories for PC via Steam on June 15.

Here is an overview of the demo, via Nacon:

The demo opens with the game’s first chapter, where Eline awakens on an idyllic beach along the Estfalian Coast and encounters Ysoris, a mysterious wanderer equipped with strange prosthetics. Despite her suspicions, Eline agrees to escort him to the nearest village, where circumstances lead them to join forces in order to rescue hunters who have been abducted by monsters born from the Corrosion. Players will be able to experience the foundations of the combat system by unlocking Eline’s first combos and Ysoris’ abilities, while also discovering the enemy weakness system and learning how to craft potions at campsites.

At the end of the quest, players will face the game’s first boss and uncover Eline’s hidden power: her transformation into the Black Beast, granting her incredible strength for a short period of time. Once transformed, Eline can deal massive damage and execute her enemies with a spectacular finishing blow… even though she remembers none of it afterward. The demo includes part of the game’s first chapter and offers nearly two hours of content. Players will be able to experience the beginning of the main quest, explore the game’s first area—the Estfalian Coast—and take on a boss encounter.

Edge of Memories is due out for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam in 2026.

Story Trailer

As Jet Set Radio Future is one of my all-time favourites, any game that draws inspiration from it is going to get my attention. Despite its low-budget indie status, Hover manages to evolve the formula and create an exceedingly fun experience that I won’t soon forget.

Publisher Nacon and developer Midgar Studio have delayed action RPG Edge of Memories from its previously planned fall 2025 release window to 2026. It will be available for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam.

Here is an overview of the game, via Nacon:

About

The Corrosion, a plague of unparalleled proportions, has already ravaged the Astryan continent. On the other side of the world, the continent of Avaris and its nomadic peoples—so far spared from the horrors spawned by this abomination—now stand on the brink of extinction. Eline, an itinerant Soul Whisperer, relentlessly battles the force that turns the once-thriving fauna, flora and humans of this lush land into grotesque abominations. Following a mysterious encounter, a dark power awakens within her, one that may hold the key to ending this apocalypse: the ability to control the Corrosion within her own body. But saving a world already doomed is no easy task. With the help of Ysoris, her unlikely mentor, and Kanta, shaman prince of a lost tribe, Eline must overcome the formidable adversaries standing in her way.
