No folks it’s not April Fool, and I didn’t wake up from a fever dream. UPPERS has a release date on Steam. A lot of us had given up hope on this seeing an actual release, but XSEED Games has come through and the game will release on Steam on October 21, 2020.
For those not in the know UPPERS is a top down beat em up from Senran Kagura creator Kenichiro Takaki. The game released on the PlayStation Vita way back in 2016. The new Steam version will offer updated graphics and a bonus character, Daidoji-senpai of the Senran Kagura series.
