Dead of the Brain Steam Version Sets October 31 Launch with Japanese Support
A 1992 PC-98 splatter adventure reaching Steam in Japanese is the opening move of the PC98 Software Completion Plan, which makes FAKKU's publishing role the thing to watch rather than the port itself.

F&C announced that the Steam version of Dead of the Brain: Shirei no Sakebi, the 1992 horror adventure from its FairyTale game brand, launches October 31 with Japanese language support. A free demo opens October 20. The release is the first entry in the PC98 Software Completion Plan, a joint project with FAKKU, which publishes the Steam version.
The Steam version keeps the original content and upscales the pixel art. FM sound source music is included, and a soundtrack DLC is planned.
Dead of the Brain is a point-and-click adventure that shifts into first-person shooting during zombie fights, including timed shooting scenes. The story follows Cole, summoned by his friend Dr. Cooger, whose resurrection drug brings back corpses that lose their personalities and turn on the living.
Since its PC-98 release, the game has been ported to X68000, FM TOWNS, MSX2 and PC Engine. FAKKU publishes the Steam version.
