Digimon Story Time Stranger Announed

Summary

  • Digimon Story Time Stranger announced for PS5 in 2025.
  • Preview shows protagonist time-traveling and male/female lead options.
  • It’s uncertain if the game will have turn-based battles like its predecessor.

At Sony’s State of Play event in February 2025, Bandai Namco unveiled a fresh Digimon game titled “Digimon Story: Time Stranger.” This upcoming title will be available on PlayStation 5 in the year 2025.

In contrast to the child-oriented Pokémon role-playing games, the Digimon Story series is recognized for its mature themes and visuals, despite retaining the adorable and amiable digital creatures.

In the upcoming installment of the series, it appears that the ominous mood from the initial trailer of Bandai Namco’s Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth – Strategy Operation, initially aired during Sony State of Play, has been maintained. This trailer can now be viewed on the official PlayStation YouTube channel.

Digimon Story Is Going Through Time Itself

The fast-paced trailer for Digimon Story Time Stranger depicts the main character traveling across time and dimensions, exploring not only the human world but also the realm of Digimons.

Similar to Cyber Sleuth, it appears that Digimon Story: Time Stranger offers choices for both male and female main characters. Notably, the series’ favorites, Agumon and Gabumon, also seem to make an appearance – a fact that isn’t unexpected given their enduring popularity among fans.

It’s not fully clear if Digimon Story Time Stranger maintains the series’ standard of having turn-based combat. While certain trailer sequences suggest slower-paced battles, it won’t be definitively known until a user interface displaying gameplay mechanics appears.

It appears that this game places a greater emphasis on exploration compared to its predecessors, given that the main character is depicted riding on Garurumon in the trailer. This could suggest larger, open environments instead of the narrow dungeons and confined town maps seen in the previous games.

The trailer didn’t provide a specific release date, but it did make clear that the game is set to debut in 2025. Fingers crossed for speedy updates as Hacker’s Memory was released approximately a decade ago, and fans are chomping at the bit to revisit the Digimon universe.
