Terranigma was originally developed by Quintet and released in 1995 during the swansong of the 16-bit era. An action-RPG classic, fast finding fame for its poignant storytelling and highly engrossing gameplay, Terranigma was released during the rise of the 32-bit consoles, overlooked by many gamers, especially across North America where the title failed to secure an official release. Gaining near mythical status as an undiscovered classic, Terranigma finally receives a re-release worthy of the title, long-awaited by discerning gamers.

Terranigma weaves a hauntingly powerful tale, recounting the story of Earth’s resurrection by the hands of a young boy named Ark, charting the planets’ progress from the earliest evolution of life, through to the present day. Lauded for its stunning character design by renowned manga artist Kamui Fujiwara, Terranigma features a narrative which will be certain to leave a lasting impression, long after gamers complete their quest. 

Adored by media and fans alike, Terranigma features fast-paced gameplay that’s simple to pick up and play for gamers of all levels. With gorgeous pixel art graphics and soulfully melancholic music, this new edition of the classic game thoughtfully adds to the original masterpiece, bringing a host of upgrades, tweaks and bonus features, designed to make the best, better still and provide an ideal point of entry for modern gamers.

In order to give Terranigma the prestige and authenticity it deserves, Clear River Games are honoured to receive the support of celebrated artist Kamui Fujiwara, who will be providing new key art and in-game designs, as well as feedback on the production. 

Fujiwara was kind enough to provide the following comment about the rebirth of Terranigma, “30 years ago, Terranigma was released on the SNES. Now, at long last it will be available once again.on console and PC, digital and physical. It may not be exactly the same as it was back then, but I'm sincerely delighted about it making its return to the current gaming environment. During the original's development, I was involved with designing  not only the characters, but the world too, and even some of the game settings as well.I hope the themes of god and humanity, creation and destruction, and the atmosphere of the world itself resonate with today's players too. Not as a relic of the past, but as a living, breathing work.This moment has been long awaited and now it is finally here. I hope you will enjoy it with all your heart.”

Ali Manzuri, General Manager at Clear River Games commented on the release of Terranigma for modern gaming platforms, “For over thirty years, Terranigma has cemented its status as a true undiscovered gem, inaccessible to many gamers in the West and long overdue for its time in the spotlight. Clear River Games exists to bring titles like these back to a modern gaming audience and as keen lovers of retro inspired gaming, we’re sure our audience will be as excited as we are to jump into this extraordinary world or Terranigma.”

Terranigma is coming to Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Steam) in early 2027.
