Whitethorn Games and Matías Schmied have announced that their mind-bending adventure RE:CALL will release on Nintendo Switch this month.
In this visual novel-style adventure, you will explore the playable protagonist’s memories which are presented through flashbacks within which they wield the power to alter their recollection of past events to immediately affect the present.
The entrance to a door may be blocked by a guard with a minor head wound, but what if the protagonist didn’t use the rock they threw the first time around? You must solve puzzles, change the hearts and minds of friends and foes alike, and reshape the future.
“When Matías came back to us after his first game, Evan’s Remains, how could we say no,” explains Whitethorn Games CEO Dr. Matthew White. “RE:CALL is a brilliant concept, both in narrative structure and gameplay mechanics, and the Whitethorn team will cherish the memories supporting it.”
The publisher has outlined the game’s key features as below:
- Memoirs of a Player: Get immersed in an epic narrative-driven adventure with a diverse cast of 10 unique characters, each with their own quirks and relationships with the protagonist
- A Butterfly Flaps its Wings: Changing the past has immediate consequences in the future. Use this strange power to escape a factory, solve a crime, and win over your adversaries!
- True Detective: The circumstances surrounding the protagonist’s powers are steeped in mystery. Launch an investigation to figure out who’s behind it all!
RE:CALL will release digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch worldwide on 17th January 2023.
