Re:Call, visual novel-style adventure, coming to Switch

Today, publisher Whitethorn Games and developer Matías Schmied – the developer of Evan’s Remains – announced that they’re bringing Re:Call to Switch. It’s due out on January 17, 2023.

Re:Call is a visual novel-style adventure that has players going on a mind-bending adventure, where changing the protagonist’s memories can alter the present in unexpected and helpful ways. We have more information in the following overview:

In Re:Call, players embark on a visual novel-style adventure through the playable character’s memories. Presented through flashbacks, the protagonist wields the power to alter their recollection of past events in order to immediately affect the present. A guard with a minor head wound may be barring the entrance to a door, but what if the protagonist used another method to get past them instead of the rock they used the first time around? Solve puzzles, change the hearts and minds of friends and foes, and reshape the future!

Key Features

Memoirs of a Player: Get immersed in an epic narrative-driven adventure with a diverse cast of 10 unique characters, each with their own quirks and relationships with the protagonist.

A Butterfly Flaps its Wings…: Changing the past has immediate consequences in the future. Use this strange power to escape a factory, solve a crime, and win over your adversaries!

True Detective: The circumstances surrounding the protagonist’s powers are steeped in mystery. Launch an investigation to figure out who’s behind it all!

Speaking on today’s announcement, Whitethorn Games CEO Dr. Matthew White said: “When Matías came back to us after his first game, Evan’s Remains, how could we say no. Re:Call is a brilliant concept, both in narrative structure and gameplay mechanics, and the Whitethorn team will cherish the memories supporting it.”
