Here is an overview of the update, via Ysbryd Games:

Instead of finding joy in returning home after graduating from college, Alex encounters a shocking twist of reality when he experiences a vision of a missing woman seemingly imprisoned within a wrought-iron torture device known as an iron maiden. Driven by an intense desire to uncover the truth, his relentless pursuit puts him on a path that could potentially shatter the very fabric of his existence.

In the meantime, The Unnamed Girl holds onto the dream of finding her estranged brother again, giving up her own identity in exchange for a social gathering invitation. She works diligently to uncover her forgotten history as she seeks a solution to rescue not only the Good Brother but also the Bad Brother.

Explore the intertwining tales of Alex and The Unnamed Character as they journey through a bewildering landscape filled with treacherous, dream-like dungeons, brimming with complex riddles, lethal traps, and peculiar foes reminiscent of PlayStation 1 aesthetics.

On your journey downwards, you’ll come across strange yet compelling companions in the dense, mysterious depths. Brace yourself for the enigmatic charm of Krow, a hired hand with secrets brewing for an imminent guerrilla movie production. Cross paths with actress Asuka Furutani who masterfully blurs the boundary between acting and life as your team faces combat trials more intense than ever before.

In this game, you’ll face off against strange adversaries in a tactical dance of turn-based combat. For your protection, there are enigmatic entities called Karta, serving as your initial shield. You can gather up to three of these Karta, each with unique passive and active skills, as well as separate health defenses. The battle system is called The Dark Game, where you compete against the tide of blood, managing injuries while outlasting opponents by maintaining control longer.

Apart from significant enhancements made to the characters and battle mechanics in YIIK: A Postmodern RPG, the sequel, “I.V”, provides enhanced cutscenes, redesigned dungeon maps, ten fresh zones to explore, revamped Monster Dens for leveling up, 150 new soundtracks, and a completely overhauled leveling system within Alex’s Mind Dungeon. This new system allows you to make significant progress in understanding abilities, uncovering Karta, narrative mysteries, and much more by making logical leaps.

The game titled “YIIK: A Postmodern RPG” can be played on PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and personal computers right away. It’s accessible through various platforms like Steam, GOG, Humble Store, and Microsoft Store.
