Since it’s the Lunar New Year season, here’s another new game update to share.
This time, we’re introducing a competitive title set against local folklore — PAGUI-Battle.
Developed by Taiwanese indie team padendon,
this is part of the “PAGUI” series on Steam, inspired by Taiwanese folk culture.
After years of development and releasing Chapters 1–3 of PAGUI,
the team announced a brand-new Steam title on 2026/2/14 —
PAGUI-Battle.
This game separates the online PvP mode originally included in the paid title PAGUI 3,
rebuilding it as a completely new free-to-play game scheduled to launch on Steam on February 24!
