Monolith Soft, Namco, and Tom Create released the Xenosaga Pied Piper game for Vodaphone devices in 2004 and then on NTT Docomo’s i-mode service in 2006. The game has never been released officially in languages aside from Japanese.
The game is set 100 years before the events of the first game in the Xenosaga trilogy, and follows the character Ziggy from the trilogy when he was still a human. While the game will not have an English release, the game description on Steam is available in English and reads:
A special investigations chief is on the trail of the ruthless killer known as “Voyager”. What incident changed the fate of a once-human cyborg?
Monolith Soft released the three games in the trilogy in 2002, 2004, and 2006. The trilogy inspired the Xenosaga: The Animation series in 2005.
G-MODE has also announced that it will release the Namco Chronicle game and Digital Devil Saga Avatar Tuner A’s Test Server Kanzenban game on Switch and Steam as part of the Archives+ label. Both of these games are also listed with Japanese interface support only.
