The Crunchyroll Games Vault is expanding its collection with two exciting new additions: the visual novel Destiny's Princess: A War Story, A Love Story, and the action RPG Ys I Chronicles. Both titles are cult classics making their mobile debut.
Destiny's Princess: A War Story, A Love Story offers a captivating visual novel experience set in ancient Japan. Players take on the role of a princess, leading her kingdom to victory while navigating complex relationships.
Ys I Chronicles, a hack-and-slash action RPG, is a remake of the original Ancient Ys Vanished: Omen. Players control the heroic swordsman Adol Christin as he battles demons to save the land of Esteria.
Crunchyroll's Games Vault strategy cleverly targets its niche audience. Unlike Netflix, which balances mainstream and indie titles, Crunchyroll focuses on titles appealing to its core fanbase of anime and manga enthusiasts. This allows them to introduce relatively obscure games to a Western audience, often for the first time on mobile. Recent additions like Steins;Gate and Ao Oni demonstrate this approach's success.
The Vault's catalog has significantly expanded since its earlier, smaller selection. This growth makes it a more attractive option for gamers seeking diverse and unique titles.
