Synthesized from 8 Yomimono stories · updated 6d ago

Cinderia launched in Steam early access on March 30, 2026, sold more than 100,000 copies in roughly 10 days, and has held a Very Positive rating: 88 percent of over 5,100 user reviews as of September, 87 percent of 4,073 reviews in August. The build sits at 2,000 yen with Japanese support. NPC Entertainment handles distribution; MyACG Studio develops.

Updates have added and rebalanced the build systems. Version 0.6.10 on July 7 adjusted Isudara's parry window and added invincibility after parry, added 10 maps for Chapter 2, and made legendary items easier to collect. Version 0.6.11 on August 14 added 37 items, the Demon Egg pet system, gem equipping, and buffs to underperforming accessories. MyACG has described four characters, each with over 100 passive skills, and a corruption system.

Attention has shifted to multiplayer and the road to launch. A two-player co-op mode was introduced at Tokyo Game Show 2026, with a stage on September 20 at Makuhari Messe and testing through the official Discord starting in October, aimed at implementation in November or December. Producer Xiao Yu said the network foundation is finished, Chinese and Japanese servers are live, and co-op already works, though events are designed for solo play. General director Xiao Yu said about two more playable characters could arrive before the March 2027 official release; a fifth character, a long-range harp-bow type, is still a draft.
