The official website of Spike Chunsoft and tri-Ace's upcoming Exist Archive -The Other Side of the Sky- sideview role-playing game began streaming an anime prologue video for the game on Tuesday.

Koharu: No! Ranze! Please, say something!

Mitsuhide: Calm down, Koharu! If you get close, you're gonna fall too!

Koharu: No!

Kanata: That day, we...

Kanata: Ranze, are you okay?

Ranze: This might be the end.

Kanata: Maybe, we were more than blessed.

Kanata: We were no longer on the railroad...

Ranze: I don't want to die together with you.

Kanata: That humanity was on.



Spike Chunsoft previously streamed the game's first promo video in October.

The game was originally slated for release on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita on November 26, but was delayed to December 17. The game's PS4 version will cost 7,200 yen (around US$56), while the PS Vita version will cost 6,800 yen (around US$54).

Those who pre-order the game will receive a soundtrack CD compiled by composer Motoi Sakuraba, as well as an art book with illustrations by character designer Tarō Minoboshi.

The game's story revolves around Kanata, a young man who is caught up in a mysterious explosion incident in Tokyo. The explosion causes the ground to collapse down to the subway level, and Kanata, his fiancée Ranze, and their two friends are part of a group of 12 people who are unaccounted for afterward. As they lay dying, Ranze — who has seemingly had a good relationship with Kanata — says, "I don't want to die together with you." The next thing he knows, Kanata wakes up in an unknown place that is obviously not Tokyo, or the Earth: a giant tower pierces the heavens and the trees are all crystalized. Kanata finds himself alone, wondering if he is dead. As he ponders this question, he wanders around this new world, and meets a lone young woman.
