One of the few pre-Wii games that has a Japan and European release but never came out in North America appears to be headed to Switch 2 and Switch next year - worldwide.

Clear River Games (one of the many subsidiaries of Embracer) has announced a "Rebirth" of the 1995/96 Super Nintendo action RPG Terranigma will release in 2027. The reveal trailer is embedded below:

Terranigma was the final Super Nintendo game released by the developer Quintet, and was the third game in a loose trilogy which also included Soul Blazer and Illusion of Gaia. The game was localized and released in Europe on 19 December 1996, but its North American release plans were scuttled with the closure of the American operations of Enix Corp: Nintendo, who had published Illusion of Gaia in 1994, elected not to release Terranigma due to that fall marking the launch of the Nintendo 64 in North America.

The story of the game features a young man named Ark who lives on a dark side of Earth and after opening a mysterious door, has to return to the "lightside" to resurrect the doomed planet in order to save his home.
