The game [[http://store.steampowered.com/app/650700/Yume_Nikki/ got a Steam release]] on January 9, 2018, still free of charge, as a [[https://promo.kadokawa.co.jp/gamecountdown/ lead-up]] to the next ''Yume Nikki'' project. At the end of the countdown, a new 3D adventure game called [[http://yume-nikki.com YUMENIKKI -DREAM DIARY-]] was announced and would be supervised by Kikiyama. It was released on both Steam and Playism on 23 February, 2018. Unlike the original, this one is a 3D exploration and puts more emphasis on puzzle-solving and light platforming. Here, Madotsuki must collect eggs hidden behind the worlds of the nexus. Playism later released a 2.0 version for the game, which adds new content to the game, on 24 May, 2018. A port for the UsefulNotes/NintendoSwitch was released on 21 February, 2019. Here's the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZx47XHhmaQ teaser trailer]] and [[https://youtu.be/QLqIffOZI6s the gameplay trailer.]]

Here, Madotsuki is a girl who finds herself trapped in the dream world, and collects the effects while exploring in an attempt to find a way out. Soon, a sinister plot by eldritch forces is unveiled, and it becomes apparent that Madotsuki is far from their only victim.
