Spike Chunsoft announced roguelike dungeon RPG Shiren the Wanderer: The Mystery Dungeon of Serpentcoil Island will launch on December 11 for PC via Steam. The base game will cost $39.99.
The Shiren the Wanderer: The Mystery Dungeon of Serpentcoil Island Plus Pack and the game’s digital soundtrack will also be sold separately on PC via Steam. Players can save 15% by purchasing one of the bundles, which includes the Plus Pack and soundtrack. Fans may also listen to the soundtrack from noisycroak Records on iTunes, YouTube Music, and other music distribution platforms.
The Steam version will feature all previously released free updates for the Nintendo Switch version, including six new dungeons and playable characters Kokatsu Shiren and Tatsumi Shiren.
Lastly, here’s an overview of the game, via Spike Chunsoft:
After receiving a vision of a mysterious girl held captive by a terrible monster, Shiren and Koppa make their way to Serpentcoil Island—a distant isle rumored to be the lost stronghold of treasure-hoarding pirates.
To brave the many dangers that await them, Shiren and Koppa must traverse complex dungeons filled with hostile monsters, hidden traps, and useful items. All the gear and experience Shiren accumulates will be lost if he collapses during exploration, so beware of rushing in unprepared! Rescue the mysterious girl and uncover the mystery that clouds Serpentcoil Island.
The release for Nintendo Switch marked the series’ latest mainline entry to come to the West since Shiren the Wanderer: The Tower of Fortune and the Dice of Fate was released on PlayStation Vita in 2016 and then on Nintendo Switch in 2020. While preserving the traditional gameplay, this installment introduces new elements and 3D graphics to create a fresh and exciting adventure.
