Rain98 Demo Hits Steam With a Heroine Who Wants to End the World
C#4R4CT3R, a game label based in Shibuya, Tokyo, released the Steam demo for Rain98 on October 17, 2026. The psycho-suspense adventure is set in 1998 Tokyo, where a young man who time-slips from the present day shares a one-room apartment with Amahara Reina, a heroine who says she is Angolmois, the Great King of Terror from Nostradamus's prophecy. Reina wants to destroy the world in July 1999, and needs heat, the stirring of her heart, to do it. The player earns Angel Seals by interacting with her, pastes 100 of them into an Angel Passport, and completes the ritual. The demo covers the story's first two chapters. It adds playable content beyond the build shown at Tokyo Game Show 2026. A hands-on event ran at UKIYO GAME BAR & CAFE in Yurakucho, where a collaboration cocktail called Melancholy Blue was served. The full version is scheduled for release in 2026 on PC via Steam.
