After being announced for the Switch earlier this year during a Nintendo Direct, Square Enix's FANTASIAN Neo Dimension has finally locked in a release date. It will be releasing for Nintendo's hybrid system and multiple other platforms on 5th December 2024.
As we've previously highlighted here on Nintendo Life, this turn-based RPG originally debuted on Apple Arcade and was actually created by Final Fantasy creator Hironobu Sakaguchi. This latest version will be expanded upon for consoles.
Here's a little bit more from the PlayStation Blog, and you can also check out our previous coverage of this game here on Nintendo Life.
"For the uninitiated, Fantasian Neo Dimension follows the protagonist Leo, who embarks on a multi-dimensional adventure to recover his lost memories and discover the secrets behind a strange mechanical infection that threatens to destroy his world. Set across the backdrop of over 150 vibrant and beautiful hand-crafted dioramas, the game features a unique artistic style with a fun, strategic twist on traditional turn-based battle mechanics."

I knew this one was coming in December! Lol, day one for me. I love Sakaguchi.
Definitely on my must-play list but, boy oh boy, my jRPG backlog only grows bigger...
@Bobb same here. Lol. Doesn’t help that this jrpg is a long one if it is the exact same from the Apple Arcade version. Ughh. I hope it’s good. Heard some good things about this one
Oh, wait.
PS5 version also available??
I've been waiting for this game for years now. I really hope it is worth it!
Yep but I’ll get it on Xbox 😆 I have reward points.
The rest of my year is spoken for between metaphor refantazio, dragon quest 3, and Fantasian! I need to fit Zelda echoes and Brothership in… but how??
I'm very excited for this but I just saw the 60€ price tag, and really? Does the game really improve on the original that much to justify that price? I'd assumed it'd be like half of that.
Sakaguchi-San and Uematsu-San making a game together is enough reason for me to get this. Looks great.
While the setting is again the overly ridiculous, no suspension of disbelief whatsoever "epic" of most sci-fi-esque JRPGs that I personally really dislike, the fact that they used tabletop scenery builds makes the wargamer in me very giddy.
Mayhaps if the price is right. It's not like I have time to play all these JRPGs. I still haven't finished Triangle Strategy, Eiyuden Chronicles or Unicorn Overlord, because why finish one before going to the next, right?
Didn't finish Octopath Traveler II either, though I am content with what I have played. Possible Spoiler alert about the first game > The impossible final boss of the first game kind of put me off of going any further, though I do love both games.
Nice and even more so considering December is way less busy when it comes to new releases, so looking forward to my physical copy to arrive even though I doubt I'll be able to start it immediately considering all the games I'll most certainly still be in the middle of playing then!
I could not preorder this cart fast enough when they went live a little while back. Glad it’s coming earlier in December, rather than later! Looking forward to another playthrough, on what is (IMHO) its proper home.
Def going on the wishlist. I hope they make enough tweaks such that it doesn’t play or feel like a mobile game on console.
Ya'll may not know this but I've been waiting for this game to be freed from Apple's clutches for forever. I didn't think it would happen and a lot of you also thought the same but boy were we wrong! I wonder if we'll get a physical copy at some point... This is one I'd spring for being that it's so deeply-rooted in Final Fantasy.
@awaltzforvenus what, where did you preorder the physical cart from?? Let me guess, PlayAsia? I'm going to check right now.
@ChromaticDracula did you find out about the physical cart? Definitely interested in picking it up physically 🙂
Yep! Found it on PlayAsia!
