About This Game

An ocean of memories. Countless worlds to discover.

Dream Ocean is a story-driven JRPG about exploring extraordinary worlds shaped by memory, emotion, and imagination.

Across a mysterious ocean lie entire worlds, each with its own people, places, and stories. Some are beautiful. Some are strange. Others hold onto things that should have been forgotten.

Join Andi, his loyal golden retriever Sun, and a growing cast of companions on a journey that takes them far beyond anything they expected to find.

Explore vibrant cities, mysterious landscapes, ancient ruins, and places that seem to defy reality. Make friends, uncover secrets, confront powerful enemies, and gradually discover what connects these worlds and the people within them.

Two ways to fight. One evolving party.

Dream Ocean combines two distinct battle systems, each designed for different kinds of encounters.

Party Battles feature Active Time Battle combat, where speed, timing, and preparation matter. Command your heroes, exploit enemy weaknesses, break their defenses, and unleash powerful abilities.

Tactical Battles bring combat directly into the environments you explore. Position your characters, take advantage of elevation and terrain, and interact with the battlefield itself.

Freeze water to create new paths. Use fire to transform your surroundings. Protect civilians, manipulate objects, and find creative ways to accomplish objectives beyond simply defeating every enemy.

Discover Shadows. Shape your heroes.

Throughout your journey, encounter mysterious beings known as Shadows. Form bonds with them to unlock new classes, abilities, and ways of fighting.

Each Shadow offers its own strengths, skills, and combat identity. Deepen your bonds to discover new forms, learn powerful techniques, and unlock devastating special abilities called Nightmares.

Develop your heroes through experience, weapon mastery, and abilities that can be carried between different class combinations.

Experiment with your party, discover unexpected synergies, and find a fighting style that feels like your own.

A world worth exploring

There's more to Dream Ocean than following the main story.

Discover optional dungeons, hidden treasures, challenging encounters, and secrets scattered throughout its worlds.

Learn Field Arts that expand what you can do outside combat. Break obstacles, search for hidden discoveries, challenge characters, fish in unfamiliar waters, prepare meals, and reforge your equipment.

Return to previously explored locations with new abilities to uncover paths and opportunities you couldn't access before.

Visit the mysterious Mind Garden, where your Shadows gather and where personal growth opens new possibilities for your adventure.

Companions, stories, and unexpected discoveries

The people you meet are more than members of your battle party.

Get to know your companions, follow their stories, and discover the relationships, hopes, fears, and memories that shape them.

Spend time in towns, meet their inhabitants, take on optional quests, or simply explore. Not every discovery is a battle, and not every story is part of the main quest.

With atmospheric 3D environments, expressive pixel-art characters, and an original soundtrack, Dream Ocean brings together the spirit of classic JRPGs with its own approach to exploration, storytelling, and tactical combat.

Some memories are worth holding onto. Others may be better left beneath the waves.
