Edia Sets 8,580-Yen Super Yanoman Collection for December 10, Adding 4 Retro Games

Summary

  • December 10 is the Japan launch date for Edia’s Super Yanoman Collection on PS5, PS4, Switch and Steam, with pre-orders opening July 13 and the standard edition priced at 8,580 yen.
  • Three Super Famicom titles anchor the bundle—Fēda: The Emblem of Justice, Torinea and Song Master—after Edia secured licensing rights directly from Yanoman to package them together.
  • First-print physical copies add a fourth game, 1992 shoot ’em up Penta Dragon, as a download code that disappears once initial PS5 and Switch stock sells through.
  • A 16,280-yen special edition includes a jigsaw puzzle, art booklet, soundtrack CD and acrylic stand, while PS4 and PC versions are digital-only.
  • No release outside Japan has been announced, leaving import copies or Steam as the only options for overseas players for now.
