- The full title is likely "Magia Exedra".
After the countdown, the game's site was opened, revealing a key visual featuring Walpurgisnacht and the members of the Holy Quintet, along with a 3D animation featuring a green Kyubey.
Pokelabo later that day released a blog post mentioning the game will feature 3D graphics.
On May 31st, 2024 it was announced that Magia Record will end its service on July 31st, 2024, and its players will be able to obtain a linkage code to transfer their accounts to Magia Exedra (Source).
On June 17th, 2024 a teaser trailer for the game was released in both English and Japanese, and an official English Twitter account became open to the public.

The pre-registration also began on Google Play and Steam. It has also been revealed that the game will feature a new character named "Namae" (voiced by Komiyama Akari) who has no memories. The player will collect Light of Memory (記憶の光 Kioku no Hikari) of magical girls through a Window of Memory (記憶の窓 Kioku no Mado) in Lighthouse Teatre (灯台劇場 Todai Gekijo) by playing through the events in the memory of those magical girls. The game will feature a green Kyubey named "A-Q" whom Namae met in the Lighthouse Teatre.
Etymology
- An exedra is a ancient Greek architectural form that served as a space for holding discussions.
Speculation
Please keep in mind that they are fanmade theories, and not official material.
- The logo of Magia Exedra seems to show a lighthouse, which could symbolize hope.
- The windows on the green Kyubey image have Ultimate Madoka's logo and a stylized ribbon on it, possibly implying her involvement.
- The blank soul gem behind the green Kyubey could indicate that the player makes their own character.
- This theory could be further proven by the "blank" magical girl seen in the June 18th trailer, as well as the wording in said trailer.
- The trailers theme of "memories" could indicate that the player must traverse multiple stories from different magical girls.
