We would like to express our deepest apologies to the fans who have supported these games since their release. We hope KOEI TECMO GAMES, Ciel Nosurge, and Ar nosurge will have your continued support in the future.
Unfortunately, there’s no way to play Ciel nosurge and Ar nosurge in English natively on modern platforms. Koei Tecmo released Ciel nosurge DX and Ar nosurge DX on March 4, 2021 across Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PC via Steam without English support in Japan. Fans can import these titles via Playasia for Nintendo Switch, as the Steam versions are region-locked.
