Stripjong - Super Real Mahjong Venus Returns

What it is

The Super Real Mahjong arcade series was a fixture of Japanese game centres from the Showa era through the Heisei era. Stripjong – Super Real Mahjong Venus Returns, billed as its direct sequel, brings the concept to PC — and optionally VR — with fully rebuilt 3D visuals and complete voice acting. Character designs are credited to illustrator Merry Haruhina.

Four heroines are available: Mizuki Tohno, Aya Fujiwara, Akira Hayasaka, and Showko, described as the series' original heroine. All four can be encountered at an in-game mahjong café called P's Club.

What's included

  • Point-blank Strip Mahjong System — the game's described headline mechanic, with characters undressing in close-up
  • VR Mode DLC — adds VR support; the base game runs without a headset
  • 35 Episode Mode scenes, plus 62 scenes total in the Memory Gallery
  • 129 achievements

Pricing and sale

A two-week launch sale runs from August 27 to September 10, 2026 (JST):

  • Base game: $29.99$23.99
  • VR Mode DLC: $11.99$9.59
  • VR Mode Bundle (base + DLC): $35.68$28.54

For players who spent their youth feeding coins into Japanese arcade cabinets — or who are simply curious about the genre — this release offers a modernised entry point at a modest launch discount.
