History
Every dated official post
Eighteen dated official posts from 9 February 2023 to 12 November 2026, including the 2025 window notice and the 2026 release-date confirmation.
Every dated post LEVEL5 has made about this game, in order, from the announcement to the pre-order campaign. The list comes from the TOPICS feeds on layton.jp and the series site; the game-specific posts are here, and the surrounding series news is on the series history page.
Read it as a record of how the game was sold: a logo, then years of trailers, then a delay, then a date, then a price.

Reading the spacing
Three trailers in 2023 and 2024, then a year of nothing, then a delay, then eleven months of silence, then ten posts in ten weeks. The density at the end is the campaign: date, trailer, demo, bonus, product page, pre-orders.
The 9 October bonus post is the one to read if you are buying. There the eleven-track soundtrack, the printed serial code and the 9 December cutoff are all stated for the first time.
Two entries on this list lead elsewhere on the site: the 2024 award post is covered in detail on the awards page, and the remake teaser from 10 September 2026 is compared with this game on the remake page.
Where this list comes from
layton.jp/jouki/TOPICS feed (Japanese, the fullest list)layton.jp/jouki/en-us/NEWS feed (English)layton.jp/series TOPICS feed (includes the remake posts and the series-wide items)
All three were read on 14 November 2026. The English feed carries fewer entries than the Japanese one - the remake posts and some series news appear only on the Japanese series site - which is why this log follows the Japanese ordering.
