スーパーリアル麻雀 Venus Returns

Super Real Mahjong Venus Returns is in active pre-release promotion, with ILLUMINATION and Infinite Loop releasing trailers and reward scene videos ahead of its summer 2026 Steam launch.

Synthesized from 6 Yomimono stories · updated Jul 2

Super Real Mahjong Venus Returns is a strip mahjong game co-developed by ILLUMINATION and Infinite Loop, returning after 30 years as a full 3D title. The game is scheduled for a Windows (Steam) release around summer 2026 with VR support, including a zero-distance stripping system and Desktop Mode on PC.

Since late May 2026, the developers have steadily released promotional material. The game will include all seven past series instruction cards as collectibles, and the P's CLUB Card, originally a fan club membership card, is an unlockable achievement reproduced in 3D. Three piece reward scene videos have been released, each showing a different heroine's strip scene: Fujiwara Aya's model was updated first, followed by Tohno Mizuki's. A third strip scene for Mizuki Tohno was previewed alongside the Compliance feature, which can hide sensitive parts with adjustable intensity settings based on eras Reiwa, Heisei, and Showa. A teaser for a fourth piece video has also been shared.

The rollout of updated 3D models for heroines has been a focus of the trailers. Mizuki Tono's model was revealed in mid-June, completing the updated heroine models. The game's presentation is being refined with a camera angle feature introduced in the third piece reward scene video. The Compliance feature's adjustable intensity shows how the game is handling streaming-friendly censorship while keeping its core content intact.
