Look forward to its release on Steam this summer (2025).



Chibi Ichihime is a super-deformed (chibi) version of Ichihime, the beloved mascot character from the online mahjong game "Mahjong Soul."
Complete with her signature cat ears and her adorable "nya" speech quirk, she'll brighten up your desktop in the cutest way.

This collaboration between Mahjong Soul and Desktop Mate is sure to make your mahjong life even more fun!

The third DLC for Desktop Mate, “Zundamon”, is now available on Steam!

The beloved regional support character Zundamon joins the Desktop Mate platform, brought to life in a high-quality 3D model supervised by the original illustrator, Ahiru Sakamoto. Known for their charming, gender-neutral and youthful style, Sakamoto's version of Zundamon is a fan favorite across YouTube, Nico Nico, and beyond.

This DLC also introduces the long-awaited voice feature to Desktop Mate! Zundamon now reacts with cute voice lines that match their movements and actions on your desktop.

Additional new features include:

• Facial Expression Sync: Zundamon’s expressions change naturally to match their motions and emotions—smiles when happy, wide eyes when surprised, and more.
  
• Rich Expression Variations: A wide range of expressions that bring out even more of Zundamon’s charm.
  

With these enhancements, your desktop experience with Zundamon feels more lively and real than ever before!
