Arc System Works has moved Demon's Night Fever from an unnamed project to a dated release. The game is set for October 22, 2026 on PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam. Digital pre-orders opened on the Nintendo eShop, and the packaged and download versions both cost 4,950 yen including tax. A playable demo is planned for the Sega/Atlus booth at Tokyo Game Show 2026, which runs from September 17 to September 21.

The game is a training RTA simulation RPG developed by Drecom. Souhei Niikawa, known for the Disgaea series, is the producer. Original concept and scenario are credited to Romantoyama, with character design by Yuuji Himukai and music by Tatsuya Yano. The premise follows a programmer named Jaryuin Kyoushirou, who becomes the apostle of a baby evil god, Gigasugoides, and works through a revival program using chapters with day limits. Battles run on a grid in turn-based phases, and servant units act on their own without direct orders. A pre-order trailer features the theme song "Dropout" by syudou.

On September 17, 2026, Arc System Works announced that an official web short manga has begun serialization. The eight-chapter comic follows Kyoushirou, a programmer who hates the world, and Evil God Gigasugoides, who carries a revival program. A giveaway tied to the game's Tokyo Game Show 2026 exhibit offers autographed colored paper from seven voice actors, including Kaori Mizuhashi and Yuya Hirose.

Earlier, on June 3, 2026, the official Anime Expo account announced that Arc System Works would hold a developer panel on July 4, 2026. The panel would feature an unannounced new anime-style title alongside updates on Guilty Gear -Strive- and Demons' Night Fever, with producers Ken Miyauchi and Sohei Shinkawa, and designer Satoshi Hiyae.
