About
Our Mission
Showa American Story Wiki is built by fans, for fans of NEKCOM Entertainment's one-of-a-kind zombie road trip. Every guide, weapon breakdown, and lore explainer is written from official sources — store pages, trailers, developer announcements — and clearly marked when it is based on pre-launch information.
Because the game is still ahead of its 2026 launch, our editors track every official beat: trailer drops, preview coverage, spec updates, and release news. Once the game ships, guides are revisited and expanded with hands-on knowledge of the Showa 66 wasteland.
About Showa American Story
Showa American Story is a single-player third-person action RPG set in an alternate 1991 — Showa 66 — where Japan's bubble economy never burst and its economic power bought up most of the United States. Stuntwoman Chigusa Choko is murdered en route to a Neo Yokohama movie audition and wakes up resurrected in a zombie-ravaged America, searching for her abducted sister Aya across a country of city sandboxes connected by her RV home base.
