Fantasian Neo Dimension Announced for Nintendo Switch

In a recent showcase at June's Nintendo Direct, gamers received an exciting preview of the turn-based RPG, Fantasian, which is set to debut on the Nintendo Switch as Fantasian Neo Dimension in the holiday season of 2024.


Fantasian, developed by Mistwalker and led by Hironobu Sakaguchi, the original creator of Final Fantasy, promises engaging gameplay and a rich narrative. The game, which has already gained popularity on Apple Arcade since its launch in 2021, features a score by Nobuo Uematsu, renowned for his work on the Final Fantasy series, adding an extra layer of allure for fans of those games.


During its presentation, emphasis was placed on the game's turn-based combat system, showcasing various skills and highlighting some of the intriguing characters encountered by the protagonist, Leo, as he embarks on a journey to recover his lost memories.

McScratchey's Thoughts

Unpacking Fantasian's Nintendo Switch Debut

One of the recent scoops to rise from the always exciting Nintendo Direct is the announcement that Fantasian is going to be reimagined for the Switch with a new title, Fantasian Neo Dimension, set for a 2024 holiday release. As a sucker for any narrative that includes a bit of memory loss and a quest (am I right?), the premise has definitely piqued my curiosity.


The brainchild of Hironobu Sakaguchi and set to the tunes of Nobuo Uematsu, Fantasian's lineage is virtually RPG royalty. Known for their iconic roles in the creation of Final Fantasy, these guys are like the Spielberg and John Williams of the gaming world—if you’re in their hands, expect a blockbuster.


Fantasian is not new to the scene, having charmed Apple Arcade users since its release in 2021. The move over to the Switch, however, suggests a new twist on the familiar adventure, and hopefully some new features tailored for the console. During the Direct showcase, the turn-based combat—which is a staple morsel for RPG fans—looked slick on the Switch, and I'm betting that both the visuals and the interface will be top-notch.


It's the enthralling narrative and the ensemble of characters led by Leo that really have my gamer senses tingling. The idea of him striving to piece together his memories while battling through a beautifully designed world? Sign me up! Plus, focusing on the deeper development of skills during gameplay is something that promises more strategic battles, and potentially, more replay value.


Do heads over to read more about Fantasian Neo Dimension if your interest is as spiked as mine. While 2024 might seem like a wait, it’s shaping up to be well worth it, and I’m here for this nostalgic yet fresh RPG experience to hit my Switch screen. Let’s hope it delivers on the nostalgia and innovation front, combining the best of both worlds. After all, who doesn’t love a bit of old-school charm with their new tech?
