Indie studio Uraga reveals a new trailer for their unique first-person game, Tattoo Removal Simulator – a zen-like simulation game where you remove tattoos and uncover the stories behind them. Think PowerWash Simulator, but instead of grime, you’re removing tattoos. With a public release planned for Q2 2026, the game’s demo is now live and available on Steam.
Tattoo Removal Simulator is a first-person simulation game that places players in the role of a skilled tattoo removal specialist. Set in a small studio within a bustling city, players help clients erase the marks of their past. Each tattoo tells a unique story, whether it’s filled with humor, love, or drama.
Players manage and grow their studio by performing high-quality work, earning income, and upgrading their tools, from standard lasers to advanced plasma technology. The game incorporates narrative elements, with clients sharing unique and unpredictable stories during their sessions. Some may lead to fascinating locations, while others reveal unexpected twists within the studio itself.
