Edge of Memories is a finished game whose studio no longer exists. Midgar Studio was closed in July after a court-ordered liquidation tied to parent company Nacon's financial troubles. Creative work on the RPG was already complete, and a specialized team took over technical finishing.

On August 12, Midgar Studio said the game would still release within 2026. On September 11, 3goo announced the PS5 version for December 10, with a physical Deluxe Edition. Nacon was named as the publisher of the PC (Steam) and Xbox Series X|S versions at that point, and no date from Nacon had been confirmed.

A week later, on September 18, Nacon announced the full release date: November 5 for PC via Steam and Microsoft Store, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. The PS5 physical Deluxe Edition from 3goo now follows on December 10.

The game moves from the turn-based ATB combat of Edge of Eternity to real-time action. Yasunori Mitsuda is handling music, Sawako Natori wrote the script, and Raita Kazama designed the characters. Nacon confirmed on September 18 that the PS5 Deluxe Edition remains scheduled for December 10, per its announcement.
