D4 Enterprise is gradually releasing a new EGG Console port of Rune Worth 2 based on its 1991 PC-9801 release for Nintendo Switch. The port is slated to be available in eShops worldwide, including the US at $7.16.

The new port of this sequel follows the first entry that came out last year in May. However, there is still the third and last entry in the Rune Worth trilogy looming around the horizon. D4 Enterprise has so far only released a Windows PC port of Rune Worth 3's PC-9801 release.

You can find the official trailer, screenshots, and descriptions for the Rune Worth 2 port right below. Despite having English descriptions, the actual ported game will only have the original Japanese language.

In the boundary between light and darkness lay Rune Worth. Once, everything was born there, flourished, and met its demise. Even the gods were no exception.

When the Absolute God Iathyls first descended upon Rune Worth, the world was in a quiet slumber. None celebrated Iathyls' arrival; only the primordial existence, Rune Worth, was present.

Iathyls' first action was creating his subordinate deities. Using light from beyond Rune Worth, he created Femeru (Wind) from his forehead, Quintat (Water) from his palm, Genpadar (Earth) from his chest, and Jaygam (Fire)—the Four Holy Heavens. Next, designating that direction as the East, he sequentially created the Eight Holy Palace Gods.
This is an action role-playing game released by T&E SOFT in 1991. Players embark on an adventure as the protagonist, Leen Kashua, in a world where the power of the gods, , is gradually fading.

The game, presented in a top-down view, takes you through dungeons and towns on the field map. The world incorporates time, with a day being 32 hours and a year 16 months.

Many cite the serious scenario and presentation as the defining feature. Lacking humorous scenes or cut-ins by deformed characters, the atmosphere is intensely serious, allowing for an understated narrative. It's highly recommended for those seeking a serious fantasy experience. As this is part of a trilogy, consider playing through the entire series.
