Next month, Another Code: Recollection will be released on Nintendo Switch. First announced during the latest Nintendo Direct presentation, back in September, this collection combines the two Another Code games (Another Code: Two Memories/Trace Memory, first released on Nintendo DS, and Another Code: R – A Journey Into Lost Memories, first released on Wii) into one package, complete with revamped graphics, new and updated puzzles, and more.

Today, Nintendo shared the usual overview trailer for the collection, showcasing what both games have to offer. As usual, it’s available in both English and Japanese, and we embedded both below so you can check out the voice acting in both languages!

The full game includes:

Another Code: Two Memories – 7 chapters
Another Code: R – A Journey Into Lost Memories – 8 chapters

Next, some more details about the collection. As mentioned before, Another Code: Recollection includes full remakes of both Another Code: Two Memories/Trace Memory and Another Code: R – A Journey Into Lost Memories. It features a full 3D map that you can explore at will, voice acting, new and refreshed puzzles, and various other improvements. Even fans who have already played the original games will be able to enjoy this modernised take on the series!

The protagonist of both games is Ashley, a young girl trying to find out what happened to her parents. Each game takes place in a different location, and have Ashley unravel her memories of the past through a variety of riddles and puzzles.

One day, Ashley receives a letter from her father, Richard, who is supposed to have died ten years ago. Ashley then heads to Blood Edward Island, which used to be the home of a wealthy family. On the island, she discovers a huge mansion filled with puzzles, and encounters D: the mysterious ghost of a boy who has lost his memories.

And if you ever find yourself in a pinch (you just can’t find the solution to a puzzle, or you’re not sure where to go next), you can use the new assist features:

Hints: give you clues on how to solve puzzles. There’s 3 levels of clues.
Navigation: points you towards your next destination.

Do note that both features can be toggled on/off at any time.
