Update: It's now been confirmed that Edge of Eternity will hit Xbox Game Pass on February 10th, 2022.


Original story (April 2021): Edge of Eternity has been in early access on PC for a while now, and was highlighted during the Xbox indie showcase last month. Developer Midgar Studio has now announced that players can expect to be exploring the fantasy world on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One this Fall. Oh, and it will also be hitting Xbox Game Pass on day one.

The turn-based JRPG features grid based combat, set in a huge fantasy world for players to explore. With quests to complete and multiple choices to be made, it's looking to be packed full of content. It even has a soundtrack by Yasunori Mitsuda, who previously composed classic games such as Chrono Trigger.

Key Features

The game joins Astria Ascending, another JRPG backed by some of the creative minds behind the Final Fantasy series, which is also due to hit Xbox Game Pass this year. It's looking to be a great year for JRPG fans on Game Pass, especially when backed with other great titles such as Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age Definitive Edition.
