Forgotton Anne is a dazzling, story-driven, hand-crafted 2D cinematic adventure focused on the mysterious Forgotten Lands:  the hidden dimension where all mislaid items from the human world - the odd socks, the lost letters, the missing toys - all linger.

With the help of the Forgotlings - creatures composed of mislaid objects longing to be remembered again - the trapped Anne and Master Bonku begin a quest to find their way home. It’s a story full of emotion, and one layered with a combination of light 2D puzzle platforming and dialogue choices.

"I think I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve been able to reach out and tell people that we’ve brought forward the launch of a game,” says Phil Elliott, Director of Indie Publishing at Square Enix. “It’s quite exciting to be able to bring ThroughLine Games’ beguiling anime adventure to Nintendo gamers ahead of schedule, especially given the number of requests we’ve had for a Nintendo Switch version ever since its debut earlier this year. Now we can deliver.”

“A Nintendo Switch version was always something we had planned to bring to life, and it’s amazing that we can do this earlier than we expected,” says Alfred Nguyen, Creative Director and Co-founder of ThroughLine Games. “We think playing Forgotton Anne in handheld mode feels fantastic and should serve as a perfect match for the Nintendo Switch console’s fast expanding audience.”

Key Features:

• A Seamless 2D Cinematic Experience: Featuring detailed painted environments and traditional 2d animations that will make you feel as if you are in an animated feature. Cutscenes are rendered "ingame" allowing for seamless storytelling, while an orchestral score and fully voiced dialogue completes the illusion.
• Epic Adventure: As you run, jump and climb your way through the Forgotton Realm, your actions can affect how you experience the story. Featuring Dialogue Options, your encounter with Forgotling creatures can have different outcomes as you uncover the mysteries of the world and your past in this emotional fantasy adventure where things are not always as they appear to be...
• Use the Arca: As the feared enforcer, Anne, you wield the Arca stone on your hand, enabling you to see and manipulate Anima energy in your surroundings. The power of the Arca lets you distill and instill Anima into creatures and control machinery that runs on Anima. Your actions may decide the fate of many a Forgotling.

On the audio-side, ThroughLine Games is proud to announce a collaboration with the Copenhagen Philharmonic Orchestra which marks the first time orchestral music is being recorded in Denmark for a videogame, utilizing world-class concert hall Radiohuset produced together with acclaimed music production house Timbre Music. The music is composed by ThroughLine's in-house composer Peter Due.
