Great news for everyone who's been waiting on the wishlist: K-jihacheol's Steam version officially launched on August 22, 2026, and you can buy and play it right now on the Steam page.

K-jihacheol Is Officially Out on Steam
K-jihacheol, previously available only on the App Store and Google Play, has now officially launched on the PC platform Steam. The Steam version shares its name with the mobile app but is a completely new, paid title — covering 94 lines and 2,361 stations across 26 cities in 19 countries, from Seoul Line 2 to the Tokyo Yamanote Line and the Paris Métro.
Thanks to everyone who added it to their wishlist, we get to share this news today. To celebrate launch, a 10% discount runs through August 29, 2026 — so head to the Steam page now, buy it, and take on your first route.
How to Get Started
Visit the K-jihacheol page on the Steam client or website and click the buy button to install it right away. Once it's installed, pick a country, city, and line, then start typing from the first station.

- Buy it at the discounted price and install it
- Choose a country, city, and line to start your first run
A World Far Bigger Than the Mobile App
While the mobile app covered 11 cities across 4 countries — Korea, Japan, the U.S., and Taiwan — the Steam version adds Hong Kong, Singapore, Toronto in Canada, 11 European cities (London, Paris, Berlin, Madrid, Moscow, Stockholm, Copenhagen, Oslo, Amsterdam, Brussels, and Lausanne), and Sydney in Oceania, expanding the total to 19 countries and 26 cities.
You type station names in Japanese in Tokyo, in Chinese characters or pinyin in Taipei, and in English in New York — capturing the feel of riding the subway like a local, not a tourist.
Three Modes of Fun
Play three ways: Drive mode, where you type the next station while viewing the map; Memory mode, where the map is hidden and you rely purely on recall to finish the line; and Race mode, where you compete in real time against a computer engineer. Race mode has 3 difficulty levels, so both first-timers and players who already know a route by heart can find the right amount of tension.
