First up in the pack is Amnesia World for Nintendo Switch. Otomate will port the title to Nintendo’s hybrid console to commemorate the Amnesia series’ 10th anniversary. Illustrated by Mai Hanamura, the narrative will focus on parallel worlds, memory loss, and miracles. The game will release in Japan on August 19, 2021.
Next is Hakuoki Shinkai Reimeiroku for Nintendo Switch. This title will take place before the protagonist of Hakuoki Shinkai meets the other characters.

Next is Radiant Tale for Nintendo Switch. Otomate’s new title will take place in a circus with a fantastical setting. Kagero Usuba will handle the designs for the game’s main characters.
