- The publisher has not provided a release date or window.
- As with other Archives+ ports, the release stays faithful to the original and is Japanese-only, and the Steam page lists Cloud saves and controller support.
- Originally launched in 2004 for Japanese feature phones, Pied Piper is a canonical prequel about Ziggy’s past as Jan Sauer, with a story by creators Tetsuya Takahashi and Soraya Saga.
