Story and current experience
What MiSide Zero actually changes
Voidway calls the project both a prequel and a reimagining. It borrows MiSide's visual language, then deliberately rewrites the world rules, plotlines and character arcs around the blonde player known as Zero.
A reimagining, not official canon
Voidway describes the project as a major rewrite of world mechanics, plotlines and character arcs—not a missing official MiSide chapter.
A short atmospheric 3D Alpha
The current Windows build is marked In development and lists an average session of about half an hour.
Interaction and presentation updates
Alpha 0.71 added left-click interaction, an in-game controls guide, an FPS counter, an animated menu logo, Mila in the menu and a Cappie soundtrack.
What the MiSide Zero Alpha actually includes
The public build is a short, in-development preview—not the finished six-ending game sometimes described by third-party pages.
Voidway's official listing currently describes a Windows Alpha with an average session of about half an hour. Alpha 0.71 added presentation and control improvements, while 0.72 was a security-focused Unity rebuild.
Keep roadmap and released content separate: additional Mitas, endings and localization should only be presented as available after Voidway confirms them on an official channel.

Story and protagonist comparison
MiSide vs. MiSide Zero
The key distinction is not simply "official game versus fan game." MiSide uses a broad player surrogate inside its canon horror story; MiSide Zero gives the blonde Zero a visible role in an earlier, intentionally rewritten continuity.
Comparison
Official MiSide
MiSide Zero
Official status
The official, canon game developed by AIHASTO and published by IndieArk.
An independent fan prequel and reimagining by Voidway, with no affiliation to AIHASTO or IndieArk.
Timeline
The main story begins with a player entering the mobile simulation he has been watching on his phone.
Moves the viewpoint to roughly one year before the base game and explores an alternate version of the setting.
Protagonist
An unnamed "simple guy" designed as a player surrogate; the official description keeps his identity deliberately broad.
The visible blonde player from Beyond the World, given the community nickname "Zero" and placed at the center of the prequel.
Narrative drive
A colorful relationship simulation turns into psychological horror as the player tries to understand and survive Mita's world.
Starts from a prequel question and intentionally rewrites world rules, plotlines and character arcs around Zero's earlier visit.
Current scope
A complete released story game with puzzles, horror sequences, several characters and multiple endings.
A short Windows Alpha marked In development; roadmap ideas should not be presented as current playable content.
Comparison wording follows AIHASTO's official MiSide description and Voidway's current itch.io listing; speculative character psychology is intentionally excluded.

Frequently asked questions
Clear answers about the current Alpha, safe downloads, endings, localization and its relationship to the original MiSide.
01Is MiSide Zero an official MiSide game?
No. It is a fan-made project by Voidway. The developers explicitly state that they are not affiliated with AIHASTO or IndieArk.
02What is the latest MiSide Zero version?
The latest public build listed on the official itch.io page is Alpha 0.72, released on January 30, 2026.
03Where should I download MiSide Zero?
Use Voidway's official itch.io page. Avoid third-party mirrors and repacks because the developer cannot verify whether those files are unchanged.
04Does the current Alpha have six endings?
Do not treat six endings as current Alpha content. The official public itch.io page does not list six playable endings in Alpha 0.72; ending counts discussed elsewhere refer to plans or community reporting.
05Is MiSide Zero the official Peaceful Mode?
No. MiSide Zero is a separate fan-made game. Its current itch.io listing does not advertise a built-in Peaceful Mode, while the original MiSide's Peaceful Mode is a separate feature planned by AIHASTO.
06How is Zero different from the original MiSide protagonist?
The original game describes its lead as a simple, mostly unnamed player surrogate. MiSide Zero instead centers the visible blonde player from Beyond the World, gives him the nickname Zero, and builds a rewritten prequel around his earlier visit to MiSide.
07Does MiSide Zero support Simplified Chinese?
Not in the language list currently published on itch.io. Treat Chinese localization as unconfirmed until Voidway adds it to the official page or announces it directly.
