Battle SHIRYU

Battle SHIRYU turns a handmade paper world into a single-player action game. Steer a paper dragon into matching-colour Moai and set off chain explosions. Dodge obstacles, guide the dragon's tail into the next target, and clear each stage.

Move your hand in front of a webcam to fly the dragon, or use a mouse. Hand recognition works without special markers or a prepared backdrop; lighting and framing can affect recognition. Mouse play needs no camera.

Travel through changing papercraft stages, from the present to Edo-era Japan and prehistory. The real gameplay images and trailer below show the hand controls and the Moai strikes in action.

For press: the downloadable press pack includes the latest 44-second Japanese/English trailer, gameplay images, photo key art and a transparent logo.

Planned release: October 27, 2026 on Steam for Windows and macOS. Base price: US$4.99 / ¥500 in Japan. A 25% launch discount is planned for 10 days. Regional prices vary.
