Another Eden Begins is a time-travel RPG from Studio Prisma, published by Wright Flyer Studios, and it arrives on Nintendo Switch 2, PC and Nintendo Switch. Masato Kato, the writer behind a long line of RPG classics, presents the command battles here. The pitch is simple and it is the right one: a party that moves through time, fights in turns, and carries what it learns back with it.

Masato Kato and the Command Battles
Kato’s name is the reason to look. Command battles are a settled form, and most games in it are content to repeat the last good version. Another Eden Begins does not pretend to reinvent the turn. It presents the fight cleanly and lets the party do the talking. That is a choice, not a failure.
The structure is where the ambition sits. New Game+ lets you carry upgraded characters into a fresh run, so the second pass is not a repeat of the first. More than 10 endings wait at the far side of that. Ten endings is a promise about consequence, and it is the part of this game most likely to decide whether players stay.
Ten Endings and the Second Run
A time-travel RPG lives or dies on whether the travel matters. If the endings branch on choices you can feel, the New Game+ loop has a reason to exist. If they branch on a flag you never saw, the loop is busywork with a nicer menu.
Here is how the release runs:
| Date | Platform | Mode |
|---|---|---|
| Launch day | Nintendo Switch 2 | Single player |
| Launch day | PC (Microsoft Windows) | Single player |
| Launch day | Nintendo Switch | Single player |
Single player across all three. No co-op, no shared world, no second screen to manage.
The Switch 2 version carries the most weight. It is the newest hardware and the one most likely to be judged on how the battles hold up under load. PC players get the same game with the same modes. Nothing here is split between platforms.
What matters is the endings, not the platform list. Ten of them is either a real structure or a marketing number, and the New Game+ loop is the only thing that will tell you which. The command battles are competent. The time travel is the bet.
