“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.”

About The World of Terranigma
The Earth is a hollow sphere with two sides: an external Lightside and an internal Darkside. In the Darkside village of Crysta, the mischievous Ark lives unaware of the world beyond. But one day, he opens a forbidden door and sets in motion events that will change the world. For decades, Terranigma has captivated players with its emotional story and transformative journey. Now you can (re)experience its magic yourself!
Return of the King
In 1995, the two-dimensional Japanese role-playing genre was at its absolute peak, but even among the beloved giants of the 16-bit era, Terranigma stands out with its unique world-building, snappy combat, enchanting soundtrack, and stunning graphics. It is truly a masterpiece, yet despite this, the game has never been re-released. Until now.
Pixel Perfection
The expressive characters of Terranigma were designed by renowned manga artist Kamui Fujiwara and hand-pixelled to perfection. The game’s soundtrack is equally impressive and frequently appears on lists of the best video game music of the ’90s. Whether melancholic or upbeat, every track fits the game’s themes beautifully.
The Battle System
Terranigma feels surprisingly fresh, relevant, and fun even today. It features an unusual but highly successful blend of RPG depth and the immediacy of an action game. You always have complete control over Ark, wielding his trusty spear to perform thrusts, jump attacks, dashes, and more. But be careful, enemies move in real time too!
A Company of Creation and Destruction
The games developed by Quintet in the ’90s were marked by a distinct melancholy and recurring themes of creation and destruction. Terranigma is their magnum opus: a technical and storytelling powerhouse and a timeless classic. If you missed it in 1995, this is your chance to experience something truly special
