Introduction

'Tougen Anki Crimson Inferno' has made a significant splash during the ongoing Tokyo Game Show 2025 (TGS2025) as the latest RPG from Com2uS Japan. The media session held at TGS2025 highlighted the game’s appeal, unique characteristics, and the studio's strong dedication to the Japanese marketplace.

The Game’s Concept

Drawing inspiration from the beloved Japanese folktale of Momotaro, 'Tougen Anki' introduces a dark fantasy twist involving the battles between ogres and descendants of Momotaro. This new RPG genre was selected based on an assessment of user preferences in the Japanese market alongside Com2uS’s expertise. The game aims to appeal not only to core players but also to casual users, enhancing accessibility without sacrificing depth.

Engaging Battle System

Central to 'Tougen Anki Crimson Inferno' is its intuitive battle system featuring a card-based gameplay mechanic that emphasizes strategy. Players can strategize by organizing their characters into two distinct groups: combat units and support units. Furthermore, battles will incorporate nuances based on original story elements, with various attributes and synergy factors influencing the outcome of encounters.

To enhance gameplay experience, features such as speed boosts (up to 3-4 times) and card management options, like canceling or adding cards, will be available during the official launch, resulting in a smoother and strategically rich gaming environment.

Artistic Excellence

The development team is committed to faithfully recreating the essence of the original TV anime, focusing particularly on high-quality character illustrations and visuals, as emphasized by the original creator, Yuki Urushibara. Great care has been taken to ensure that the 3D models remain true to the anime's aesthetic, thus achieving an impressive level of quality.

Notably, even though this is a turn-based RPG, players can look forward to engaging motion designs that respond to attack directions, as well as impactful defensive actions and knock-back effects that truly enhance the combat experience.

Additionally, fans can expect original narratives and characters crafted specifically for the game, alongside thoroughly recreated iconic scenes from the anime, ensuring that even longtime fans will have a fresh perspective on the 'Tougen Anki' universe.
