Vor einiger Zeit wurde in der Famitsu mit AWAY: Shuffle Dungeon ein weiteres DS-Projekt von Mistwalker enthüllt. Heute wurde nun bekannt, dass das Spiel im Herbst über Virgin Play auch in Europa veröffentlicht wird.
AWAY: Shuffle Dungeon spielt in Webb Village. In dem Dorf verschwinden nach und nach die Bewohner und der 17-jährige Sword macht sich nun in den nahegelegenen Dungeons auf die Suche nach ihnen.

Welcome to Webb Village. Webb Village is your average pleasant storybook village with one peculiar trait. Webb Village has been suffering from a rare phenomenon for over a century. People disappear leaving no trace behind, something that they refer to as Away. Nothing to let them know when its going to happen or who´s next
Sword is a 17 year-old boy that came to Webb Village when he was 15. On the verge of becoming another away victim, little Anella quickly jumps in the way to keep him from vanishing sacrificing herself instead. Her heroic action not only aways herself, but all of the other villagers as well, leaving Sword alone.
Guided by a mysterious light, Sword finds his way to the Shuffle Dungeon where his adventure starts. There is a chance, to find the villagers and to bring them back, but can he do it before its too late?
Welcome to Webb Village, however long your stay.
Away, Shuffle Dungeon is scheduled for release this autumn 2008 exclusively for your Nintendo DS.[/quote]
