It looks like a Fantasian PC port may be headed to Steam. A SteamDB listing for the Hironobu Sakaguchi RPG showed up on SteamDB. When it launched, the game debuted as an Apple Arcade exclusive in two parts. [Thanks, Wario64!]
The SteamDB listing for Fantasian on Steam noted it was updated on August 2, 2023. Various image assets appeared. The “header” one features the Apple Arcade markings crossed out in blue. However, the capsule, library, and logo images are all clean ones. The update history for the listing first showed up on July 19, 2023.
This wouldn’t be the first time we heard about a PC version of Fantasian. Sakaguchi discussed the possibility back in February 2023. At the time, the game’s creator told IGN, “There are a lot of fans who want to see it on Windows, as well as lots of questions regarding a sequel. I wish to continue to do my best and work on it.” However, at the time there were no confirmations that the game would actually appear on other platforms. However, it isn’t uncommon for Apple Arcade exclusives to appear on other systems when exclusivity arrangements expire.
Fantasian is immediately available on Apple Arcade for Macs and Apple devices, and the new Steam details showed up in SteamDB on August 2, 2023.
