Jigokuraku: Battle in Hell's Paradise Arrives on Steam with New Worlds

The survival RPG Jigokuraku: Battle in Hell's Paradise launched on Steam on July 10, 2026, extending the game beyond its mobile origins to PC.

What changed

  • Steam version is now live, allowing play on PC via Steam.
  • Two new Worlds have opened alongside the launch:
    • World 26 — Japanese (Group 5)
    • World 27 — English (Group 6), described as the first recommended World for English-speaking players.
  • New World Launch Celebration is active in both new Worlds.
  • Account linking is available for existing mobile players, carrying over all progress to the Steam version.

The announcement frames the PC release as a quality-of-life expansion rather than a separate product — mobile players can link accounts and continue without losing data, sidestepping phone storage and battery constraints in the process.

For players already invested in the game, the path to PC is a straight carry-over; for newcomers, World 27 offers a fresh English-language entry point timed to a launch celebration.

Jigokuraku: Battle in Hell's Paradise Arrives on Steam with New Worlds

The survival RPG Jigokuraku: Battle in Hell's Paradise launched on Steam on July 10, 2026, bringing the game to PC for the first time alongside the opening of new server Worlds.

What changed

  • Two new Worlds added at launch: World 26 (Japanese, Group 5) and World 27 (English, Group 6) — the first recommended World designated for English-speaking players.
  • New World Launch Celebration is active in both new Worlds.
  • Account linking allows existing mobile players to carry over all progress to the Steam version.

The announcement specifically frames the PC release as a convenience upgrade for mobile players, citing phone storage and battery life as friction points the Steam version removes. New players, meanwhile, are directed to the newly opened Worlds rather than legacy servers.

For anyone already invested in the game on mobile, the account-linking path means no progress is sacrificed in the transition. For those arriving fresh, the English World 26 designation signals an intentional effort to cultivate an English-speaking community from the ground up.
