'FYQD Studio,' the one-man development studio based in China, announced new versions of 'Bright Memory: Infinite' for modern consoles. The game was originally released in its early access form on PC through the Steam platform at the beginning of 2022, and was met with great success, with many fans claiming that this one-man development project rivals full-budget AAA games.

The game received praise for its smooth gameplay, impressive animations, true-to-life graphics, and its flushed-out story.
