STP WORKS Inc. released Kosen Pusher Gaiden on Steam and Nintendo Switch 2 on August 13, 2026, priced at 470 yen. The new title in the medal game series moves exploration into a yokai-filled cave, adding deck building, bead raising, and raid battles for up to four players alongside the familiar pusher mechanics.
Kosen Pusher Gaiden is out now, and it is not the same game as its predecessors. The new entry keeps the medal-dropping pusher core but wraps it in a cave exploration loop where yokai appear every 500 meters and drop permanent relics when defeated.
Beads now carry attack, defense, and recovery effects, and players must decide whether to strike or heal before loading them into the shooter box. A hunger gauge penalizes stats at zero, and checkpoints every 100 meters soften the penalty for falling in battle.
Between runs, the base lets players build decks, appraise beads, and spend old coins on gear. Raid battles support up to four players and offer special relics for taking down stronger enemies. The game is available for 470 yen on Steam and Nintendo Switch 2, with support for Japanese, English, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, and Korean.
