Beyond the Beyond, known in Japan as Beyond the Beyond: Harukanaru Kanān e[b], is a 1995 role-playing video game developed by Camelot Software Planning and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation. Though not the first role-playing game released for the PlayStation, Beyond the Beyond was the first RPG available in the west for the console using a traditional Japanese RPG gameplay style like Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest and Phantasy Star.[2] The characters were designed by manga artist Ami Shibata of Papuwa fame.[3]
