Crunchyroll's Ani-May celebration is just around the corner, and it's shaping up to be an exciting month for fans of cult Japanese releases. Crunchyroll Game Vault, a haven for enthusiasts, is expanding its offerings with the launch of the Ani-May event. Starting April 30th, you can look forward to a brand-new release added to the service every week throughout May.
Kicking off the festivities is the Square Enix classic, Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth, arriving on April 30th. This enhanced version of the original game invites you to embark on an epic journey as the spirit guardian Lenneth. Your mission? To recruit fallen heroes for the climactic battle of Ragnarok, set against a backdrop inspired by Norse mythology.
But the excitement doesn't stop there. May promises a diverse lineup of games catering to various tastes. Whether you're into the chilling atmosphere of the cult-classic horror RPG Corpse Party, the light-hearted slice-of-life adventure Shin Chan: Shiro and the Coal Town, or the gripping survival horror of White Day, making its mobile debut, there's something for everyone.
There are even more releases not mentioned here, so be sure to keep an eye on Crunchyroll Game Vault. While some streaming services like Netflix have faced challenges in capturing the gaming audience, Crunchyroll has successfully carved out a niche with its focus on Eastern imports, catering to a cult-appreciating crowd.
