D4 Entertainment and Project EGG have revealed that the next title coming to the Nintendo Switch eShop as part of its Console EGG series of rereleases will be Nihon Falcom's PC-88 action RPG hit Xanadu (thanks gosokkyu!)
The second game in the Dragon Slayer series, Xanadu was released for the PC-88 in 1985 and features a mixture of dungeon crawling, real-time combat, and RPG mechanics (including a morality system, item customization, player statistics, leveling, and more). It was a huge hit in Japan upon its original release, but as gosokkyu notes, it has surprisingly never received a faithful port to home consoles, despite coming to various other home computers including the X1, PC-98, FM-7/77, and MSX/2, and Windows.
In the last 80s, Hudson Soft, for instance, released Faxanadu on the Nintendo on the Famicom/NES, which is considered to be a spin-off from the Xanadu as opposed to a direct port, while the 1997 Sega Saturn compilation Falcom Classics opted to package in the 1995 PC-98 remake Revival Xanadu over its PC-88 original.
This modern reissue is the third release in the Console Egg series, following the arrival of the PC-88 classics Thexder and Relics on the console back in October.
