OMEGA 6 Manga Coming to US in October 2025
If you have a soft spot for retro-style games, you might already be keeping an eye on Takaya Imamura’s upcoming adventure game OMEGA 6: The Triangle Stars. That game is based on a manga series created by the former Nintendo art director, and now Dark Horse is bringing that manga to the US for the first time.
Check out the cover art to OMEGA 6 below:
OMEGA 6 is written and illustrated by Imamura, with an English translation by Zack Davisson (H.P. Lovecraft’s The Colour Out of Space). Here’s Dark Horse’s official description of the book:
After awakening from a rejuvenating months-long stasis, androids Thunder and Kyla are ready to spring back into bounty-hunting action! With the aid of some peculiar magic fruits, the pair enter a nearly invincible berserker state. However, there’s a catch—once the effect wears off, they will age rapidly and become feeble until they can return to their recovery pods. Their current target, an assassin named Petrogaze, carries an appealing $300 million credit bounty on his head. The job seems easy: the duo plans to power up, bag the bad guy, and be home before dinner. But Petrogaze is much tougher than anticipated! Forced to consume their fruits early, the bounty hunters are suddenly on a life-or-death timer. Dinner’s gonna have to wait!
“I sincerely hope that my manga and games can be enjoyed by people regardless of where they live, and it would make me very happy if my work delivers an exciting and thrilling experience!” said Imamura in a statement.
“The videogame version is a totally different story,” adds Junji Seki, OMEGA 6: The Triangle Stars Director and President of Happymeal. “Set in the same world as the OMEGA 6 comic, full of drama-infused encounters and battles with the 100 plus unique aliens created by Imamura-san. I hope you enjoy the adventures of Thunder and Kyla in the game as well as the comic; you may even discover characters making an appearance in both!”
The OMEGA 6 manga will be released in October 2025, while the game hits the PC and Nintendo Switch on February 28.
