Colopl announced Shironeko Project Infinity for Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 during a July 2026 live stream, targeting a 2027 release. The game is a new console-original action RPG, not a port of the smartphone title.
Colopl revived a dormant console project with the July 2026 announcement of Shironeko Project Infinity, a new action RPG for Nintendo Switch and Switch 2. The game is not a port of the smartphone title Shironeko Project New World's but an original work built for home consoles, featuring over 50 characters from the mobile game. Gameplay includes encountering allies during battle, allowing players to add them to the party or strengthen existing characters, and a Character Links system that combines allies to trigger evolved actions and buffs. Original characters unique to this title are also planned. The game supports single-player and up to four players in local multiplayer.
The announcement ends a long period of uncertainty for a console Shironeko Project. Colopl first announced a Switch version in 2018 under the title Shironeko New Project, but it was delayed in 2019 from an initial 2020 target to an undetermined date. The project was put on hold for review. The new Infinity title was revealed during the Shironeko Project 12th anniversary live stream, and a repost campaign ran on the official X account until July 17. The smartphone game launched in 2014 and received a TV anime adaptation in 2020, but the console version had been absent since the 2019 delay.
