About

Lead Rex, Pyra, and the world to refuge in an adventure enhanced for the Nintendo Switch 2 system!

Lost in a sea of clouds, entire civilizations rest on the backs of Titans. As the giant beasts march toward death, the last hope is a scavenger named Rex—and Pyra, a living weapon known as a Blade.

This journey has been enhanced with 4K* resolution in TV mode, and full HD in handheld mode, at 60 frames per second—and with smoother and sharper cutscenes.
