SpiralAI is preparing to launch its first licensed AI chat RPG, RyzaChat: AI, for iOS and Android on August 18, 2026, with pre-registration open and a user survey running until August 17.
SpiralAI announced RyzaChat: AI on August 4, 2026, a free-scenario AI chat RPG licensed by Koei Tecmo Games and set in the world of Atelier Ryza: Ever Darkness & the Secret Hideout. The app is scheduled for release in August 2026 on iOS and Android, with pre-registration opening the same day. Players advance travel, alchemy, and battles through conversation with Ryza instead of command selection, and can switch between RPG Mode for story progression and Chat Mode for casual interaction.
The project is built on SpiralAI's proprietary SpiralLLM, trained on all scenarios and setting materials from the original game. The developer has stated five principles: all Ryza assets were handcrafted under illustrator Toridamono's supervision with no image or video generation AI used; Ryza's voice uses recordings made exclusively for the app by original voice actress Yuri Noguchi; the world follows the original map under Koei Tecmo Games supervision; and revenue is returned as royalties to illustrators, voice actors, and original IP holders.
On August 6, SpiralAI confirmed the app's launch date of August 18 and began a user survey with a deadline of August 17. The survey asks seven questions about honest feelings toward free-scenario AI chat RPGs, future project candidates, and questions for an August 18 release live stream. The survey explicitly includes an option for users who still feel reluctant to converse with AI characters, showing the developer is courting skepticism as much as enthusiasm ahead of launch.

SpiralAI announced on August 6 that its chat AI app RyzaChat:AI, based on the Atelier Ryza series and licensed from Koei Tecmo Games, will launch for iOS and Android on August 18. The game is a free-scenario AI chat-style RPG where conversing with Ryza advances travel, alchemy, and battles. It offers two modes: RPG Mode for story progression and Chat Mode for leisurely interaction. The AI uses SpiralLLM, trained on all scenarios and setting materials from the original Atelier Ryza, and conversation content is not used to train the model. All assets are handcrafted under the supervision of illustrator Toridamono, with no image or video generation AI used. Ryza's voice uses recordings by original voice actress Yuri Noguchi, recorded exclusively for the app and operated via SpiralAI's proprietary voice synthesis. Revenue is returned as royalties to the illustrator, voice actress, and original IP holders. Alongside pre-registration, SpiralAI began a user survey with a deadline of August 17, asking seven questions about honest feelings toward free-scenario AI chat RPGs, future project candidates, and questions for an August 18 release live stream.
