‘SINoALICE’ From Yoko Taro and Another Eden Have Been Confirmed for Release in North America and Europe

Posted on by Mikhail Madnani

Square Enix has tons of free to play mobile games in their catalogue and while many make their way to North America and Europe, few get left inside Japan. There isn’t any shortage of good games to play on iOS and Android but one aspect of a game called SINoALICE made me want to play it besides the art. Yoko Taro of NiER (PS3 / Xbox 360), Drakengard series (PS2 and PS3), NieR: Automata (PS4, Xbox One) fame, is the writer and creative director for SINoALICE. The three games I mentioned above are enough pedigree for me to basically want to play or watch anything Yoko Taro is involved in. They are that good. I was patiently waiting on Square Enix to announce an English release of SINoALICE but GREE just made the announcement public in their financials for Q1 2019. Watch the trailer for SINoALICE below:

Another Eden has also been confirmed for English release by GREE and unlike SINoALICE, this will be self published. Another Eden is another free to play smartphone RPG in Japan that is also coming to Nintendo Switch in Japan. Another Eden features Masato Kato (writer) and Yasunori Mitsuda (composer) of Chrono and Xenogears fame. Watch the trailer for Another Eden below:

As of now, neither has a release window and there are no details if the English releases will include regions outside North America and Europe. Both games are available in Japan for free on both iOS and Android. Have you been holding out for a localisation announced for either of these games?

      Woo!! SINoALICE is a no-brainer for me, will eat-up anything Yoko Taro. Another Eden I actually hadn't seen previously, but I'm digging the Mitsuda tunes, cool art-style, and total sucker for warrior frogs.

      While I reeeeeally don't need any more gacha-types, if we can now get Arc the Lad, I'll be a very happy man...

        What worry me is no sight of how Sinoalice play and Another Eden look autoplay.I am tired of gacha types games that only look pretty but take away control of the game or barely have any actual gameplay to speak off except red dot simulator.

          You basically slice enemies with your fingers, getting EXP and drops in the process... It's a quite different gameplay... It should have some gameplays at YouTube, so you're able to see for yourself, because it's quite hard to explain (as everything from Yoko Taro). Otherwise you can even play the Japanese version downloading the APK through APKPure or QooApp.
