<span class="bold">Xanadu Next</span>, an exploration-focused retro dungeon crawler, is available now, DRM-free on GOG.com with a 10% launch discount.

Though Xanadu Next was originally released in 2005, the PC edition never officially made it outside of Japan. Up until now that is, as XSEED Games' re-release finally brings the classic to modern PCs with full English localization.
Xanadu Next is an exploration-centric RPG from the creators of Ys & Legend of Heroes. With a slew of captivating twists on the formula, you'll explore an interconnected world full of secrets, littered with backstory, and rich progression systems to keep your experience fresh.

In dungeon-crawling jRPG style, <span class="bold">Xanadu Next</span> returns – DRM-free on GOG.com. The launch discount will last until November 9, 4:59 PM GMT.

dtgreene: Has someone tested this release on Wine yet?

(According to WineHQ, the Japanese release doesn't work on Wine (unlike most Falcom releases), but it is possible that something may have changed in the meantime.)

Not working on Wine is actually a dealbreaker for me, as I only use Linux and don't even have Windows installed at all.
It works but the textures are all rainbow colored and that makes the game unplayable.

dtgreene: Do you, by any chance, have a screenshot?

(Sounds like a rather interesting reason for the game being unplayable.)
Can you see if this link woks for you?

dtgreene: Yes, the link works.

Wondering why the game glitches in *that* rather colorful manner, rather than in some more mundane way.
From the terminal output, it looks like a shader issue. Lots of GLSL errors and warnings...

rampancy: So I'm guessing UseGLSL=disable doesn't have any effect?
None at all whatsoever. I also tried "ddr=opengl" and "ddr=gdi" and that just made things worse.

groze: I hope the GOG peeps address the Galaxy not updating to GOG-4 version of the game issue tomorrow, as I enjoy using Galaxy and would like it to update the game to the latest -- and skill slot bug free -- version.
It's fixed now :) Sorry for the hassle :)

Lisabet: not sure if this is the right place; but I downloaded the gog-4 version and cannot get it to launch; I get Failed to initialize Direct3D.

anyone have any idea how I can get it to run?
There is a configuration utility in the same place the game's executable is located. Please use that utility to configure the game for your system :)
