- Edge of Memories demo extension and what's next! - 26 June 2026
Hello everyone! Thank you all for making time to check out Edge of Memories, download our demo and take your first steps into Avaris.For those who managed to play the demo, we hope that you could feel our progression as a studio.

The demo was the perfect moment to show off what we've been working on. It is also, a good chance for us to reflect on what still needs to be done in the final months before launch. There's been a lot of feedback, some of these are quality of life features that we'd like to look into a…

We try to embed this ideal into every aspect of the game, with more things to learn about your companions, skills to master and new places to explore.But in a world ravaged by the Corrosion, an unstoppable disease spreading across the continents, warping creatures and the land itself, this presented an interesting idea for us as a studio.

This corrupting influence twists and warps the landscape, fauna, and flora. It’s the inevitable end for all things.
