This is Misty's treat, right here

Judging from the video quality they no longer have the film elements to work from and it was captured from the arcade laserdisc but still - this should be great.

ICYMI, Taito already remastered Time Gal for smartphones a few years back, and it turned out pretty well—the base game adds a theatre mode & training mode for every scene, and the DLC adds a bunch of concept art/dev docs and a "show all the QTEs in advance" option:

The SE for this upcoming collection comes with a download code for "Time Gal Reverse/Rebirth", which seems to be some sort of epilogue, but I have no idea if it's brand-new or based on something from back in the day.

EDIT opening movie!

Time Gal Re:Birth is a new game starring a new time-travelling hero, Luna, that's set to fill in the blanks/behind-the-scenes on the original villain's theft of the time machine and the adventures of Reika.

It'll feature a theme song, "Meteor Traveler", sung by Ayane (Higurashi, Memories Off, Steins:gate, etc), as well as this voice cast:

Luna: Mai Sato
Reika: Ayana Taketatsu
Luda: Kenta Miyake
Erika Mori, Shiori Izawa, Mikako Komatsu, Miho Okasaki, Reina Ueda, Lynn (other roles)

Screens after the jump (horny warning):






There's also some info on the Amazon Prime Day-exclusive1 bonus game, Space Battleship Yamato Arcade Game Edition: it's a raw version of the original arcade game, without the remastered visuals or other enhancements of the HD version.


  1. they're actually upfront about possibly selling this one separately later

Yup! They’re doing something weird with it - it’s an Amazon prime day bonus they’ll be selling separately later. But I didn’t think they’d ever port it, the license probably wasn’t cheap

I'm pretty sure Yamato's part of the base collection—the Amazon bonus (which, for the first time, has a "we might sell this later" disclaimer) is specifically for an "arcade game edition", which people are taking to mean a non-HD version, but nobody really knows precisely what it is.

The SE also includes a code for "Time Gal Reverse/Rebirth", whatever that is...

Ohhh huh, I totally misunderstood that. Thanks for the clarification! Taito are definitely being a little weird about this.

I hope they explain what that SE bonus is soon.

yeah, apparently one of the press releases says it's some sort of epilogue, but like... is it being made from scratch? did they unearth it from somewhere? are they recreating it from pre-existing assets? etc

BTW, one of the original Time Gal devs located a master disk a couple years back, which he delivered to Taito, so maybe it's related to that, who knows.
