Paranormasight: The Mermaid's Curse Brings Underwater Horrors This February

Square Enix's spine-tingling Paranormasight is getting a follow-up. Paranormasight: The Mermaid's Curse will arrive in just two weeks, on February 19, 2026.

The first Paranormasight was released in 2023, to a generally positive reception. It told the tale of a spiritual battle royale, where people tried to bring their loved ones back from the dead by emerging as the sole victor. Now, it's getting a follow-up with The Mermaid's Curse.

This new story heads to Ise-Shima, Japan and follows Yuza, a pearl diver who encounters another version of himself in the water. Several other strangers gather on the island as well, and the investigation into the supernatural starts to unfold.

Paranormasight: The Mermaid's Curse looks to have many of the same mechanics of the original Paranormasight: a flowchart of different characters' perspectives, puzzles to solve, and plenty of creepy moments to give you chills.

Paranormasight: The Mermaid's Curse arrives on the Nintendo Switch on February 19, 2026, with pre-orders beginning later today.
