The discount is the lowest price the title has reached, part of a sale marking the Wizardry IP's 45th anniversary in 2026. Alongside it, a collaboration portrait DLC with the base-defense shooter Marfusha is out now on Steam, priced at 1,480 yen tax included, with the Nintendo Switch version scheduled for November 20. The portraits are newly drawn by hinyari9, the indie creator behind Marfusha, and put the game's conscripted girls into fantasy costumes. Marfusha is set in the dystopian state of Kazolmia, a steampunk world shaken by war. IID said further portrait DLC is in planning and development, and that future portrait DLC will basically be sold for a fee. The Five Ordeals is a 2006 Windows title substantially upgraded for Steam and Switch, developed by 59 Studio and published under Game*Spark Publishing.","whyItMatters":"The Marfusha portraits are aimed at players who find custom portrait setup a hurdle, and the Switch release on November 20 extends that convenience to a platform where user-made portraits were harder to bring in.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe Marfusha portrait pack is priced at 1,480 yen on both Steam and Nintendo Switch, and IID positions it for players who find preparing custom portraits difficult, and for Switch owners who want portraits without the setup.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe base game normally sells for 3,980 yen on Steam and the Switch download version, or 4,980 yen for the Switch standard package.
