Polden Publishing announced on September 4 that Studio Bitdot's Needle In A Haystack Simulator will support Japanese. The game literalizes the English idiom about a needle in a haystack: players sift through five million pieces of hay to find a single needle. Treasures found along the way can be sold for tools that expand search capacity. Online co-op is supported. The game launches on Steam in Q4 2026, with price undecided.
