Synthesized from 9 Yomimono stories · updated 6h ago

D4 Enterprise has spent 2026 broadening the reach of its EGG Console line, which re-releases classic Japanese PC games on modern platforms. The company has moved beyond its home base on the Switch, bringing titles to Steam, and has kept a steady cadence of releases that preserve original quirks while adding modern conveniences. Recent additions include a 1986 MSX2 action adventure, a 1994 PC-9801 real-time strategy, and a rebalanced version of a foundational Falcom action RPG.

The service has also become a destination for early adventure and action games from the 1980s. In September, D4 Enterprise made the 1983 text adventure Seinaru Ken free to Project EGG subscribers, a title developed with the creator of Mugen no Shinzou on the team. That same month, the MSX action RPG Volfes and the 5 Demons joined the lineup as the 114th EGG Console title, and the PC-9801 version of Puyo Puyo landed as the 113th. Each release follows a similar template: the original game, a modern platform, a price point around 880 to 980 yen, and often a Gallery mode for viewing manuals and packaging.

Preservation is a consistent thread. The EGG Console reprint of Puyo Puyo keeps PC-9801-specific display traits, and Relics MSX2, released on both Switch and Steam, includes a Scene Select mode and a Gallery. The company is also handling physical products through its Platz division, which will release three die-cast Komatsu construction models in September. The retro game push remains the core of its activity, with titles arriving at a pace that keeps the EGG Console catalog growing through the summer and into the fall.

Bothtec's Relics MSX2 Joins EGG Console on Steam June 19

D4 Enterprise announced on June 2, 2026, that Bothtec's 1986 action-adventure game "Relics MSX2" will be released on Steam as part of the EGG Console line on June 19, 2026, for 1,200 yen. The game is set in a mysterious ruin that rose from the sea, where the player controls a protagonist who exists as a spiritual entity with no clear objective. The core mechanic is the "Spirit Ride" possession system, which lets the protagonist take over the bodies of defeated enemies. The possessed body determines attack methods, stamina, and how other characters react, making body choice a strategic element. The original game was noted for its sci-fi character designs, detailed humanoid animations, and effective use of sound effects such as wave sounds, which created a cinematic experience for its time. The EGG Console version includes a Scene Select mode for jumping to specific scenes, final battles, and endings, plus a Gallery mode for viewing the original manual and package art. The Steam store page is already live.
