Imagine running a marathon in a lobster onesie, dodging exploding melons, ravenous Shiba Inu dogs, and bizarre TV game show antics. That’s Nippon Marathon 2: Daijoubu!

But what does “Daijoubu” mean? It’s a popular Japanese phrase meaning “It’s okay,” “I’m fine,” or “Everything’s under control!”—exactly what you’ll be shouting (or hoping) as you navigate Nippon Marathon 2: Daijoubu’s outrageous courses packed with unexpected surprises.

With ragdoll physics that defy logic, a cast of eccentric characters, and courses bursting with absurd hazards, just about anything can happen—and it probably will.

Nippon Marathon 2: Daijoubu launches into Early Access in Q2 2025, bringing even more hilarity and chaos to your screens.

Features

Hilarious New Stages: From urban streets and ramen museums to hillside temples and bamboo forests, each stage brims with wacky obstacles and surprises. Explore Shika Shika Deer Town, Yolko Harbour, and Poodle Hill Zone—where you might even find an old lady battling for fresh bread!
Bigger, Better Gameplay: Enjoy fresh hazards, fruity weapons like the devastating Whirling Cucumber, and new game-show interruptions, including surprise Shiba Inu appearances.
Expanded Features: Customize your character with Create-a-Contestant, compete in online ranked modes, or dive into a fully-fledged single-player campaign.
Multiplayer Mayhem or Solo Glory: Battle with friends or CPU rivals in a chaotic contest for game show supremacy.
Epic Soundtrack: Stay pumped with an electrifying soundtrack that keeps the energy high.
Development Plans During Early Access: Expect fresh features to be added throughout development, including new contestants (like the egg-haired man, Mister BREAKFAST who desperately wants to replace all meals with breakfast food), brand-new marathons, casual and ranked online modes, and a fully-fledged single-player campaign.
