WANE is an announced turn-based occult RPG with roguelike mechanics from Metis Creative, revealed during the PC Gaming Show Tokyo Direct on September 21, 2026. No release date is set.
Metis Creative announced WANE on September 21, 2026, during the PC Gaming Show Tokyo Direct. The game is a turn-based occult RPG with roguelike mechanics and is set for PC. Players control archaeologist Declan Wayne, who returns to the ruins of Ravell and enters a labyrinth built from his own memories. A three-person party of occultists and mercenaries fights grid battles where positioning, cover, and lines of fire matter. Shoreline Games will handle sales, and no release date is set.
The announcement is the first and only WANE story on the record. The other three items in this cluster are not about WANE: an Identity V creator collaboration at Don Quijote Akihabara, a Taiwanese adaptation of the webtoon Itaewon Class, and a Good Smile Company Nendoroid reveal stream. None of them add information about WANE, and none of them share a subject with it.
Because coverage of WANE consists of a single story, almost nothing is settled beyond the initial details. The format, the platform, the publisher, the protagonist, the party structure, and the battle system come from the announcement. Release timing, staff, and further footage do not appear in any story.
