The PC version of Artes Note, a text-centric idle RPG originally released for iOS and Android in January 2019, launched on Steam on July 13, 2026. The mobile version had surpassed 100,000 total downloads before the PC port arrived. The game is free-to-play with item-based microtransactions, and its core mechanics remain unchanged from the smartphone original: players create characters by choosing race, job, and a title that affects stats, then form a party to explore dungeons where combat and exploration proceed automatically.

The PC release retains the full narrative depth of the mobile version, with approximately 1,000 types of equipment, 85 dungeon types, and a story exceeding 300,000 characters. The developer reports that 93% of users rated the story as interesting. Save data from the demo version can be transferred to the full release. A 7.5th anniversary event is running until August 21.
