'The Adventures Of Elliot: The Millennium Tales' Is An Action/RPG Coming To Nintendo Switch 2, PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC In 2026 - Screens & Trailer

The Adventures Of Elliot: The Millennium Tales is a single-player action/RPG featuring a bold narrative, deep exploration, robust customization, and intense real-time combat.

Get ready for an HD-2D adventure that’s unlike any developer Team Asano made before, putting you in control of the titular Elliot in a fast-paced adventure that combines thrilling real-time action and rewarding exploration.

The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales is an action RPG set in the world of Philabieldia - a beautiful but savage land dominated by warring beast tribes. Humanity’s last bastion is the Kingdom of Huther, protected by its tall walls and Princess Heuria’s powerful magic.

When a mysterious set of ruins is discovered, a young adventurer named Elliot and his fairy companion Faie are sent off on a journey to investigate. What seems like a simple, if dangerous, mission soon becomes a grand saga that will be woven across time and space.

As Elliot, you’ll explore an expansive world, from grassy plains to dank caves and mysterious ruins. Hordes of enemies roam these lands, but fortunately Elliot is well-equipped to deal with them. He can wield seven types of weapons, from swords for close quarters combat, bows for ranged attacks and even chains and sickles that can pull enemies towards him.

These weapons can be customized with magicite to increase their utility further. Some magicite has simple stat boosts - such as increasing attack damage - while others have effects that change their very function. A personal favorite is the Linked Arrows magicite which adds an extra hit to foes around your target when you use your bow.


"I’m very pleased to announce The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales, the first action RPG in the HD-2D series. It features simple and easy to understand gameplay yet offers a deeply satisfying and challenging experience! As the HD-2D series has expanded and evolved, we’ve gradually shifted genres. We started with a classic RPG with OCTOPATH TRAVELER and went on to do a strategy game with TRIANGLE STRATEGY. When we thought about where to go next, we felt that challenging ourselves to an action RPG would be a good direction. It goes without saying that we want to deliver this game to all the people who enjoyed the games that we have made previously (BRAVELY DEFAULT, OCTOPATH TRAVELER, TRIANGLE STRATEGY, etc.), but I would be delighted if it could reach out to a new audience of gamers as well!," said Tomoya Asano

"I hope that everyone, including all the fans of Team Asano’s previous games, can play the Debut Demo and experience for themselves what our first foray into the action genre looks like! We’ve pulled out all the stops to create an epic experience, as Elliot travels through a thousand years of history in an adventure that can be enjoyed by all! Look forward to great things!," added Producer Naofumi Matsushita.

Switch 2 owners can download a demo for the game today. This ‘Debut Demo’ is designed to give you a sense of the exploration and action you’ll experience in the game, so expect plenty of crunchy combat, spooky caves and all kinds of secrets hidden around.


See a crackable wall? Blow it to smithereens with a bomb and you might discover a Secret Treasure Route- a small dungeon you can explore for valuable rewards.

Perhaps you’ll find a Shrine of Life - these optional challenges put your combat and traversal skills to the test. Perhaps you’ll find valuable loot like magicite or money. Always remember - this is a game that rewards the curious.

Or, you could follow the quest markers and delve into a deadly swamp, and the Unexplored Ruins beneath. This multi-level dungeon is full of dangers - so be sure to use everything you’ve learned to find your way through.

Once the demo is done, you’ll be invited to take part in a survey (open until Sept. 30, 2025) to tell us what you think. Your responses will help make the final game even better, so please share your feedback!

The Adventures Of Elliot: The Millennium Tales comes to Nintendo Switch 2, PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Steam) in 2026!
