The Crunchyroll Game Vault is expanding its offerings with the addition of two cult classic games, bringing unique experiences to mobile gamers. First up is Destiny's Princess: A War Story, A Love Story, a visual novel that transports players to ancient Japan. As a brave princess, you'll lead your kingdom to victory while navigating romantic entanglements with a cast of charming characters. This marks the first time the game has been available on mobile, thanks to Crunchyroll's initiative.
On the other hand, Ys I Chronicles caters to fans of action-packed gameplay. This hack 'n slash RPG, a remake of the classic Ancient Ys Vanished: Omen from the 2000s, lets you step into the shoes of the heroic swordsman Adol Christin. Your mission is to liberate the land of Esteria from the clutches of marauding demons.
Crunchyroll's strategy with their Game Vault is astutely tailored to their audience, which spans from dedicated otakus to casual fans. By focusing on niche, often overlooked titles, Crunchyroll brings games to the Western market that might not otherwise see the light of day on mobile platforms. This approach not only caters to their existing fanbase but also introduces gamers to new and unusual titles, as seen with previous additions like Steins; Gate and Ao Oni.
Since the initial launch of the Game Vault, the selection has grown significantly. This expansion addresses earlier critiques about the limited offerings, as noted by Catherine in 2023. With the vault now boasting a more diverse range of games, those looking for value for money might find it worthwhile to explore what Crunchyroll has to offer.
