As the video game industry transforms from a physical medium to a digital future, game preservation is becoming an increasingly important topic.Saving the history of this medium is crucial, and a game historian has just successfully preserved one of the rarest video games of all time.

Game scholar Bruno de Figueredo announced that he has uploaded the ISO file of "TRIPITAKA: Master Xuanzang's Journey to the Dharma" (sequel to "The Story of the Millennium of Kyoto") to the Internet.The original work was released in Japan by SoftEdge in 1993, and the nonlinear adventure game was released in North America the following year, gaining a small group of fans.The sequel "TRIPITAKA: Master Xuanzang's Journey to Seek the Dharma" is extremely unpopular, and only one physical copy is known to be left.

In 2023, the physical CD-ROM of "TRIPITAKA: Master Xuanzang's Journey to the Dharma" was sold in Yahoo Japan for nearly $300.After nearly two years of hard work, Figueredo successfully convinced holders to allow him to share the game online to survive in future generations.

Last year, Xbox formed a dedicated game save team, while Sony established its own game save department two years ago.Nintendo's attitude towards game preservation is relatively vague, and the upcoming Switch 2 game key fob even raises questions: How to save games on these carriers in the future? In addition, the US Copyright Office refused to allow libraries to share game collections online, which also brought a blow to the game preservation campaign.
