The Apothecary Diaries game 'The False Imperial Brother' announced for consoles and PC

gamingSep 9, 202615111

The Apothecary Diaries: The False Imperial Brother, an original mystery-adventure from Koei Tecmo, was announced for Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5 and PC with an early 2027 release window. The trailer and press release shown during Nintendo Direct position Maomao as the playable detective who investigates incidents, gathers clues, explores, and solves mysteries in a new original story. Posts praise how the game translates the anime's art style into 3D and imagine Maomao thriving in a deduction-focused role, while a few commenters riff on Koei Tecmo's fit for the project by referencing musou or Atelier connections.

If you saw the Nintendo Direct today, and noticed there was an Apothecary Diaries game and got curious about it, check out the anime. It's incredibly fucking good.

When I saw "Apothecary Diaries" and "Koei Tecmo" I had a brief beautiful vision of a Maomao musou game

It cannot go underappreciated how well they translated the art style of the Apothecary Diaries anime into 3D for this game. It's something if done poorly people will notice but if done well it's like "well of course it looks like this that's what Apothecary Diaries looks like". They *nailed* it.
