A 13-year-old Japanese RPG for the PS Vita is making its debut on home consoles for the first time, with a release date set for September 2026 on PS5. Developed by Studio Saizensen and published by Furyu, Exstetra was originally launched exclusively in Japan in 2013 for the PS Vita and Nintendo 3DS.
The remastered version for PS5 is scheduled to come out on September 3, 2026, while the PC version is available today.
The game’s story revolves around the idea that “Kiss is the only way to save two worlds destined for destruction.” It’s set in Amazea, a Tokyo merging with an alternate dimension on the brink of collapse. Players assume the role of a “Prisma,” a chosen hero fighting to save both worlds from annihilation. The game’s unique twist: the only way to prevent catastrophe is through a kiss.
This marks Exstetra’s first-ever international release. In 2013, inquiries about localizing the game for English audiences were met with skepticism, as XSEED, the company often responsible for Western releases, indicated it was unlikely to happen at that time. However, XSEED is not involved in this current project.
The game’s PlayStation Store page is not yet live, and the price for the PS5 version has not been announced.
