As you progress through the building’s floors, a crowd hungry for action follows your every move through live streaming broadcasts. This public exposure creates additional tension, increasing the pressure on you and the need to achieve increasingly more impressive feats. Your battle is not only for the liberation of the kidnapped influencer, but also for the preservation of your own reputation and the entertainment of those who are watching.

Get ready for a journey filled with dangers, thrilling challenges, and the aesthetics of the golden age of anime.

“We love the golden age of Japanese anime from the 80s and 90s, and we want to pay tribute to that magical era with this game.” says Alessandro Martinello, Game Director.
