Neon Genesis Evangelion XR Games Are in Development

Pixelity announced that it has started working on new XR (Extended Reality) games based on Neon Genesis Evangelion. The company added that it has signed a contract with the Evangelion franchise owner Khara, which gave it a license to create games based on the classic anime title.

The company also specified that it will base the games on the 26-episode anime show that aired on television in 1995, rather than the Rebuild of Evangelion movies that ran from 2007 to 2021. It will also split the project into three episodic parts—in a similar fashion to Square Enix’s Final Fantasy VII Remake project. The first entry is slated for release in 2026.

Pixelity will produce the Neon Genesis Evangelion XR games with Action Adventure as the genre. The player will enter the anime’s world as a new original character, and they will also be able to interact with the series’ existing characters like Shinji and Rei. The games will have players undergo missions while witnessing immersive battles between the Evangelion units and the Angels.

The first of the three episodic Extended Reality games based on Neon Genesis Evangelion is planned for release in 2026. Pixelity will publish more details about the game, including its full title and platform list, at a later time.
