Steam Announces 2026 Releases: 'Phantom Tag: Manifest' and 'Estique

C&R Creative Studios revealed its new asymmetric multiplayer title Phantom Tag: Manifest, slated for a Steam launch this summer with a Nintendo Switch 2 version planned for later in 2026. The 4‑vs‑4 game pits thieves against ghosts in an eight‑minute, split‑screen battle inside a ruined mansion, featuring distinct TPS and FPS perspectives, private‑match mode for streamers, and a price of ¥1,800.

Cat Hui Trading LLC and AMATA Games released the 8‑bit side‑scroll shooter Estique on Steam on 5 August 2026. Priced at ¥2,480, the game offers both a Japanese version and a North‑American version with altered graphics, a transformable robot that switches between fighter and robot forms, and a storyline about two girls defending Earth from an alien takeover. Both titles support Japanese language UI and are part of the 2026 wave of indie releases on Steam.
