A Steam Next Fest demo featuring offering 20 minutes of gameplay will be available starting October 19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Drunken Goddess Reflux 2nd Trailer\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/N3H7UZQQQwI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Developed by Japanese studio Alliance Arts and directed by <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/fuyuki216\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Fuyuki Hayashi<\/a> (whose other works include <a href=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/news\/japanese-denpa-music-rhythm-game-invites-people-to-write-delusional-posts-from-the-pov-of-a-psychotic-hikikomori-to-be-featured-in-game\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Yunyun Syndrome!?

Set in Hell\u2019s local Pandemonium bar, you challenge Femme in hopes that she\u2019ll throw up her soul before you do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Femme won\u2019t take your challenge lying down, however. Not only is she Hell\u2019s resident alcoholic (she is the demon of alcohol, after all), but she is obsessed with you. Femme&#8217;s obsession is so deep that she promises to make you immortal with the liquor of Hell if you lose the drinking game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In each round, you pick a shot glass from a selection of similar-looking drinks with different proofs. Femme goes next, choosing from the remaining selection. Naturally, choosing stronger spirits gets you drunk faster, but Drunken Goddess Reflux throws in some unique elements that shake things up. Stabbing your own hand, for example, can sober you up by curing three points of intoxication. You can also make use of rule changes, such as adding an extremely potent drink called Spiritum into the remaining selection of drinks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1464\" height=\"834\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1464px) 100vw, 1464px\" src=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/20261009-73630-001.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-73632\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/20261009-73630-001.jpg 1464w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/20261009-73630-001-380x216.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/20261009-73630-001-767x437.jpg 767w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Between drinking rounds, you can explore a 3D version of the Pandemonium bar. In it, you\u2019ll uncover hidden secrets, engage in conversations with other characters, and make decisions that shape your playthrough. Drunken Goddess Reflux has seven possible endings, giving you an incentive to return to the hellish bar after your first run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Drunken Goddess Reflux is set to release for Windows (<a href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/app\/4150720\/Drunken_Goddess_Reflux\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Steam<\/a>) on December 8.
