Furyu's Anomalith Surpasses 40,000 Steam Wishlists, Tanaka Romeo Writes Short Story
Furyu announced that its upcoming survival third-person shooter Anomalith has surpassed 40,000 Steam wishlist registrations. To mark the milestone, the company published a short story titled '■■ Handwritten Notes Found in the Mountains' on the official X account. The story was written by Tanaka Romeo, who is handling the game's scenario. The short story is meant to convey the game's unsettling atmosphere, where a familiar place gradually becomes one from which there is no return. Furyu plans to release additional special content at each wishlist milestone; when the next goal of 50,000 is reached, an original illustration by character designer MON is scheduled to be released. Anomalith is a survival TPS set in a Showa-era retro Japan. Players investigate a special space called the 'Otherworld,' a liminal space that suddenly appeared, searching for a friend who went missing after being swallowed by it. The game is scheduled for release on October 29, 2026, for PS5, Nintendo Switch 2, and Steam. The standard edition costs 8,580 yen, while the limited 'Hazard Zone Countermeasures Office BOX' and Digital Deluxe Edition each cost 12,100 yen.
