HORSES Horror Game Gets Japanese Language Support June 16
Santa Ragione's controversial horror game 'HORSES' will receive an official Japanese language update on June 16, 2026. The announcement was made by translator Rabumu (also known as LoveMoo) on June 15. The game, which was banned from sale on Steam and the Epic Games Store due to its extreme depictions, is available on GOG.com, itch.io, and the Humble Store for $4.99 (approximately 700 yen). In 'HORSES,' the player takes on the role of a college student who spends 14 days working on a farm where the horses are naked humans wearing horse masks. The experience is presented in monochrome with live-action full-motion video segments. Despite the platform bans, the game has earned a 4.3-star rating from about 800 reviews on GOG.com and won the 'Nuovo Award' at the 2026 Independent Games Festival Awards for innovative works. It was also nominated for the Seumas McNally Grand Prize. The Japanese translation is handled by Rabumu, who previously translated 'Mediterranea Inferno' and 'CLeM.'
