Limited Run Games have revealed they are publishing the new Mega Drive shoot em up Earthion, which has been developed by Makoto Wada and Yuza Koshiro at Ancient. Currently the game is only available for PC via Steam, PS4, PS5, Switch and Xbox Series X|S, but with the game being developed on real Mega Drive hardware I think it’s safe to say a proper Mega Drive version is on the cards at some point in the future. You can wishlist the game on Steam which currently lists a “coming soon” release date. An announcement trailer has also gone live which you can view via the embed below: Earthion will feature 8 stages of Mega Drive shmup action and a soundtrack composed by Yuzo Koshiro of Streets of Rage fame. Saturn Puyo Puyo Spin-Off ‘Waku Waku Puyo Puyo Dungeon’ Now Translated to English by Fans | Fan SceneMay 7th, 2025
The SEGA Saturn Puyo Puyo dungeon crawler spin-off Waku Waku Puyo Puyo Dungeon has now been translated into English and is available to download from Romhack.ing. Originally released for the Saturn in 1998 and in Japan only, this roguelike action RPG is now fully playable in English and with a new English title of Exhilarating Puyo Puyo Dungeon. The project was lead by brandnewscooby. Patching Saturn games requires a BIN/CUE rip of the original Saturn game, the patch file which you can download from Romhack.ing, and patching software like SEGA Saturn Patcher. The patch file needs to be applied to the CUE file to work. Congratulations to brandnewscooby for gifting the Saturn community access to another previously Japan exclusive Saturn game and making it more accessible to English speaking audiences.
