Everyone has the “window shopping” game. Ya know, the game you look at during every Steam sale, but either due to budget constraints or priorities, you never end up buying it. Anima: Gate of Memories and its sequel/spinoff, Anima: The Nameless Chronicles, are two such games for me. However, it seems that ahead of the upcoming Anima: Song From the Abyss, I may have the opportunity to revisit these games.

The Anima: Gate of Memories I&II Remaster, is a reimagined release of the two games coming later this year for PC, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Developer Anima Project has taken both games and properly interwoven their stories into one unified and remastered adventure. Here is what the press release says about Anima: Gate of Memories I&II Remaster:

“Anima Gate of Memories I&II Remaster brings together two acclaimed action RPGs in one enhanced game!

Anima is a third-person Action RPG that weaves together two fates: One of a legendary monster and a mysterious girl with no memory of her past, the other of an immortal soul cursed to wander the world forever.

Their existence will take an unexpected turn when they discover that all of them have been involved in something sinister, a war in the shadows in which they will have an involuntary leading role in opposing sides of the table.

Experience the original Anima: Gate of Memories and its companion story, Anima: The Nameless Chronicles, both fully remastered with improved visuals and gameplay.

Explore a rich fantasy universe inspired by the Anima Beyond Fantasy tabletop RPG saga, filled with deep lore, fast-paced combat, and branching storylines shaped by your choices.

Whether you’re new to the saga or returning, this is the ultimate way to discover the world of Anima.”

Considering I have passed over Anima before, I’m curious to see how this re-imagined, unified version turns out. It looks cool, and the trailer shows a rather interesting vision for the experience. Hopefully, we’ll get an announcement of a release date soon, though for now we have to settle for the Fall 2025 release window.
