It's funny how much more generic "Labyrinth of the Demon King" sounds in Japanese.

My Japanese isn't good enough to judge the subjective impression that a phrase makes with 100% accuracy, but maou and meikyuu are both very common words in video game titles

• Cropped steam screencap showing an image link to an upcoming game called "Labyrinth of the Demon King." The Japanese title (魔王の迷宮) is in large text and its English translation appears immediately below it. In both versions "Demon King" is in red and the rest of the text is in white. In the background is a dark figure with eyes sagging out of its sockets, drawn in the style of old youkai art.
