Hey look, it's Karous!

(probably the most normal trailer rs34 has put out)

Nov 27, 2025. Pre-orders are up at the usual places.

Edit: Another live stream went up. Looks at later levels, bosses, etc

Double post:

Another live stream

They looked very tired, and later confirmed they were very tired (having just had to move from the place I've been for ten years which is on the fifth floor with no elevator, I could relate intimately), but said the game is 90% finished.

In a shocking development, they (finally) acknowledged that people from other countries play these games, and mentioned they were taking steps to be a bit more inclusive (although, stopped short of saying what these steps actually were)

Speaking of which, 4gamer just published an interview where they basically confirm that Karous is being translated into English!

https://www.4gamer.net/games/946/G094660/20250918044/

Worth reading because the interview covers a lot of other cool topics as well

The question in the interview about catering to a global audience was specifically asking about the steam version, fwiw
The steam version doesn't have a solid release date but I hope it comes out sooner rather than later

Oh, also Karous will be at TGS this year at the back of Konami's booth. There will be an event for Karous on-stage at the booth as well, and it'll be streamed here (I expect the vod will stay up): https://youtu.be/BqqgltuwFSk
