Avex Pictures has thrilled fans by announcing a new mobile game based on the beloved series, Made in Abyss. After exploring the depths of the Abyss through manga, anime, and a 3D action RPG, the story is now making its debut on mobile devices for the very first time.

What’s the Scoop?

The newly announced mobile game, titled Made in Abyss: A Difficult and Mysterious Journey, was unveiled alongside the launch of its official X account. This account is expected to serve as a hub for updates as the game progresses toward its release. Although details about the gameplay are scarce, it has been confirmed that the game will be a casual mobile title, initially available only in Japan for Android and iOS platforms. There has been no mention yet of a global release.

Dived into the Abyss Yet?

For those new to the series, Made in Abyss originated in 2012 as a manga crafted by Akihito Tsukushi and serialized on Web Comic Gamma. The narrative centers around Riko, a young orphan residing in Orth, a town encircling the enigmatic and vast vertical chasm known as the Abyss. This Abyss is teeming with ancient technology, bizarre creatures, and a haunting mystery that has claimed many lives. Riko's ambition is to emulate her mother, Lyza, a revered White Whistle Cave Raider who vanished within the depths of the Abyss.

During her journey, Riko encounters Reg, a half-robot boy with amnesia. Together, they embark on a perilous descent into the Abyss, fully aware that they might never make it back. The manga's popularity led to its adaptation into an anime in 2017, followed by a sequel film, Dawn of the Deep Soul, released in Japan in 2020. Additionally, in 2022, Chime Corporation released a console and PC RPG titled Made in Abyss: Binary Star Falling into Darkness.
