News: Early Works by ‘999’ Scenario Writer to Receive First Official Localization

Before the DS introduced us to time manipulation, a couple of standout games were already exploring this concept, and now they’re making a comeback on the Switch with a fresh twist.

Next year, fans of unique storytelling in the gaming world have something exciting to look forward to. Spike Chunsoft is bringing back two intriguing classics from renowned scenario writer Kotaro Uchikoshi—both Ever 17: The Out Of Infinity and Never 7: The End Of Infinity are set to be remastered for the Switch. And the best part? These games will be fully localized, so you won’t need any fan translations to dive into their captivating worlds.

Mark your calendars for March 6, when these revamped adventures hit the shelves. Never 7 will be priced at $19.99 in the US, while Ever 17 will be $29.99. If you want to grab both, there’s a bundled deal at $44.99, which is a nice option for those who want the complete experience.

Originally launching in Japan back in 2000 for Never 7 and 2002 for Ever 17, these games are part of an intriguing time-loop adventure series. They come from the brilliant mind of Kotaro Uchikoshi, who’s also known for creating the intense narratives of the Zero Escape series and AI: The Somnium Files duology. With these remasters, new fans and long-time enthusiasts alike can experience where it all began, now with the ease of modern accessibility.
