Crunchyroll's Ani-May celebration is just around the corner, and it's shaping up to be an exciting event for fans of cult Japanese releases. Starting on April 30th, Crunchyroll Game Vault will be rolling out a new game every week throughout May, beginning with the Square Enix classic, Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth.
Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth invites players to step into the role of the spirit guardian Lenneth, who recruits fallen heroes for the epic battle of Ragnarok in a world steeped in Norse mythology. This enhanced version of the original game promises an immersive experience for both new and returning players.
But the excitement doesn't stop there. Throughout May, Crunchyroll Game Vault will introduce a variety of titles to cater to diverse tastes. Horror enthusiasts can look forward to the cult-classic RPG, Corpse Party, while fans of slice-of-life adventures will enjoy Shin Chan: Shiro and the Coal Town. For those who crave survival horror, White Day will make its debut on mobile platforms.
