The Game at a Glance

What is Another Eden Begins?

Another Eden Begins is a premium single-player time-traveling JRPG from WRIGHT FLYER STUDIOS and STUDIO PRISMA, based on the first major story arc of Another Eden: The Cat Beyond Time and Space. Aldo travels across antiquity, the present, and the future while searching for his kidnapped sister, Feinne.

The game rebuilds the adventure as a standalone title with a fully voiced main story, strategic command battles, Another Force, character and kinship quests, and New Game+. After completing the main story, your developed characters carry forward into new routes where your actions can lead to more than ten different endings.

Characters

Another Eden Begins features 19 playable characters in its main roster, counting Aldo and 18 companions encountered across different eras. Use the character guide to compare companions, their stories, and how they fit into party-building and Chain Skill strategies.

Aldo

The protagonist and a swordsman carrying the fate of the world as he travels across time and space.

Feinne

Aldo's younger sister, described officially as a kind-hearted girl possessing a hidden power capable of changing the world.

Cyrus

A mysterious samurai who has the appearance of a frog and joins Aldo's time-traveling adventure.

More details
Amy

A hunter from the future and one of the major companions Aldo encounters during the story.

Party Building

Understand roles and Chain Skill conditions before choosing a party. The combat guide explains the systems rather than ranking untested teams.

Roles

Check damage, support and healing options.

Chain Skills

Inspect the action and Chain Point conditions for each character.

Valor Change

Prepare an alternative party for a different matchup or recovery.

05

Combat Guide

Combat combines visible field encounters, four-character command battles, automatic Chain Skills, Valor Change, and the returning Another Force system. Understanding how these mechanics feed into each other is more important than simply selecting the highest-damage attack every turn.

1

Approach visible enemies on the field to initiate command battles; Another Eden Begins replaces the original game's random encounters with enemies roaming the map.

2

Perform the actions required by each character to gain Chain Points. A Chain Skill automatically triggers at the end of a character's turn once its CP requirement is met.

3

Build chains by matching skills and Chain Skill properties; one character's automatic attack can generate the conditions needed to trigger another character's Chain Skill.

06

New Game Plus and Endings

New Game+ unlocks after completing the main story and is a major part of Another Eden Begins rather than a simple replay mode. It preserves much of your progression while opening more than 10 additional endings based on choices, actions, items, and story branches.

10+ Endings

More than 10 endings become available from the second playthrough onward, and the developers say these endings are new to Another Eden Begins.

Ending Conditions

Some endings require particular choices or specific items, according to director Yasutaka Onaga.

Ramiu

The new character Ramiu is introduced as part of the New Game+ adventure and guides Aldo into the game's expanded second-playthrough story.
