Square Enix announced during the Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase on Thursday The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales, a new action role-playing game for release on Nintendo Switch 2 in 2026. Update: The company later revealed that the game will also get releases on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam and Microsoft Store on the same day.
A demo is launching on Thursday. The developers are gathering player feedback from a survey following the demo.
The story follows Elliot, an adventurer in the continent of Philabieldia, which has been overrun by beast tribes. Only the Kingdom of Huther is safely guarded by a spell. Elliot, accompanied by the fairy Faie, leaves the kingdom to investigate ruins beyond the castle walls.
Elliot can use seven weapon types, including swords, bows, chains and sickles, during battles. Faie can also perform Fairy Actions. A second player can control Faie in co-op.
The game features HD-2D graphics. The same creators of the Bravely Default and Octopath Traveler games are developing the new title.
