Shiren the Wanderer: The Tower of Fortune and the Dice of Fate

When Shiren the Wanderer: The Tower of Fortune and the Dice of Fate launched last month, Japan was the only region where a physical version was offered. That’s now changing, courtesy of Limited Run Games.

Limited Run Games will soon be offering standard and collector’s edition versions of Shiren the Wanderer: The Tower of Fortune and the Dice of Fate. The latter release includes an art book, Mamel stress ball, art prints, and Miracle Dice.

Akiba's Trip: Hellbound & Debriefed

Earlier this week, Acquire announced plans to bring Akiba’s Trip: Hellbound & Debriefed to Switch. The game was also given a release date of May 20 in Japan.

Clouded Leopard Entertainment has now followed up for some news in Asia. Akiba’s Trip: Hellbound & Debriefed will be distributed on that same day as well, and English support is confirmed.

XSEED previously announced plans to publish Akiba’s Trip: Hellbound & Debriefed in North America. However, that was back in 2019, so it’s currently unknown if the company will be handling the Switch version as well. While it’s likely, even if it doesn’t happen, we at least know that an English version will be offered on Switch thanks to the upcoming Asian release.
