Digimon Story: Time Stranger launches for PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC via Steam worldwide in 2025
A new Digimon Story RPG entry titled Digimon Story: Time Stranger was revealed at the February 2025 State of Play program. Shortly after the PlayStation-exclusive show, Bandai Namco revealed that the new game, which is being developed by Media Vision, will be available worldwide in 2025 on not only PlayStation 5 but also Xbox Series X and PC via Steam.
The "Digimon Story" title indicates that this entry's gameplay system will revolve towards a turn-based RPG where you can collect Digimon data from battle encounters to generate their playable versions and Digivolve them when you have raised their levels enough. But while the classic DS entries are entirely focused on the franchise's Digital World and the Cyber Sleuth duology mostly took place in the real world and its network landscape, the new entry appears to take place in both the real and Digital worlds.
You can find the official reveal trailer, screenshots, and description for Digimon Story: Time Stranger right below. As a side note, the Japanese trailer also used the English dubs that appeared in State of Play. However, Bandai Namco has assured on the Steam page that the game will also have a Japanese voiceover option. Other than English and Japanese, the new game is also slated to support subtitles in French, Italian, German, Spanish (Castilian and Latin American), Brazilian Portuguese, Korean, and Chinese (Traditional and Simplified).
