Console Archives Ripple Island will launch for PlayStation 5 and Switch 2 on October 8 for $7.99 / 800 yen, developer Hamster announced.
Here is an overview of the game, via Hamster:
Who is Emperor Groaker? And what is the true ending?
Ripple Island was released by SUNSOFT in 1988 for an 8-bit home console.
This is an adventure game in which the player takes on the role of the protagonist Kyle and goes on an adventure while operating 9 types of commands. Whether you can rescue Princess Nasareru, who was kidnapped by a monster calling himself Emperor Groaker, bring peace back to Ripple Island, and be united with the heroine depends on your judgment and actions.
(The game includes only the Japanese version. Please note that all in-game text is in Japanese only.)
