The Astronauts announced Japanese language support for the witch-hunting extraction shooter Witchfire. The v0.9 update will also introduce a new Vault, adjust the World Corruption system, and recruit players for a closed translation test. The game remains in early access on PC.
The Astronauts confirmed that Witchfire, a single-player FPS blending extraction shooter mechanics with roguelite and soulslike elements, will receive Japanese language support. The announcement came alongside details of the v0.9 update, which adds what the studio calls the largest Vault yet as endgame content and revises the World Corruption system to respond to player choices rather than escalating automatically. The developer is working with translators worldwide and recruiting participants for a closed test focused on catching translation errors. Witchfire entered early access on the Epic Games Store in 2023 and is currently available on Steam and the Epic Games Store for 4,500 yen. Further details on the v0.9 update are expected over the next several weeks.
