Edia Opens Teaser Site for Otome Game PROJECT SIGN: Astraea

Edia opened a teaser site on October 13, 2026 for PROJECT SIGN: Astraea, a new otome game from its women's game brand MintLip+. The game is planned for release on Nintendo Switch and is built around crime suspense, with the official X account using an icon modeled on a police badge emblem. On October 9, the project's X account posted a message styled as an email from an unknown sender carrying the line "What is worth betraying justice for?" in Japanese and English. The teaser site issues a mission for users to complete by October 19 at 12:00, when materials for the game will be released; the character designer will be named at the same time. Aika Kuboshima is producer and director, Ren Mikado is the main scenario writer, Ryoko Seki and Ao no Nui are sub scenario writers, and Shimadamaru-me handles chibi character illustrations. MintLip+ was established by Edia in October 2025, when the brand announced two new otome games.

Denfaminicogamer and Automaton both describe PROJECT SIGN: Astraea as the first of the two otome games Edia announced when it established MintLip+ in October 2025, with the second project carrying the name Invisible. At the time of that brand announcement, Edia listed the same core team now attached to Astraea, and named Aika Kuboshima as producer and director, Ren Mikado as main scenario writer, and Shimadamaru-me as chibi character illustrator, with Ryoko Seki and Aono Nui added as sub scenario writers.

Automaton reports that Kuboshima has worked on MintLip titles including Star Sign and AD-Fresh, that Mikado wrote scenarios for Hana no Bakumatsu Koisuru Chou and Yunohana SpRING!, and that Seki was the main scenario writer on Hypnosis Mic -Alternative Rap Battle-. The official X account @Astraea_MLP began a character countdown on October 13, one character per day at 18:00, and a top secret item is set for October 19 at 12:00. The teaser site sits at sin-of-astraea.com, and the project's tagline reads "See the truth, seize your future at will."
