Living in the CRYMELIGHT, the universal dream.

Last week at Indie Live Expo, FURYU announced the next title in the dark Bishoujo action CRY series, CRYMELIGHT. Inspired by “Alice’s Adventures In Wonderland,” the game will be released for Nintendo Switch 2, PC via steam, and PS5 on November 5th.

CRYMELIGHT is the third of FURYU’s “Dark Bishoujo Action” RPGs, following 2019’s CRYSTAR and 2023’s CRYMACHINA. The series is centered around a cast of young female heroines navigating dark fantasy worlds, battling lost souls while shedding tears.

CRYMELIGHT follows a young girl known only as “Alice” after she wakes up with no memories of her past and discovers she must journey to the lowest layer of Purgatory to earn her “Rebirth.” Alice must set out from the Tea Party Hall, defeat enemies born from the depths of madness, and confess and confront the sins she has committed, undergoing immense emotional growth in the process.

CRYMELIGHT will feature:

  • Traversal between two distinct realms: Wonderland (a prison where the souls of the dead are held captive) and The Tea Party” (a sanctuary offering respite to young girls burdened by their sins). At the Tea Party, in between conversations with the characters she meets along the way, Alice can confess and atone for sins accumulated during combat, allowing her to acquire enhancement items and power-ups.
  • Strategy and exhilarating combat. Defeating enemies in combat triggers a burst of energy, and as their final cries dissipate, a shimmering blue-violet space — the “Wonder Dimension” — unfolds beneath players’ feet. The more this space expands, the more player abilities are amplified, accelerating movement and tactical maneuvers. Furthermore, the specific skills players acquire alter the scope and nature of these enhancements, dynamically transforming a player’s entire combat style.
  • Collectible “Skill Cards” that can be formed into a poker-style build system. The stronger the poker combination players assemble, the more potent the hand’s effects become—dramatically altering both the impact of attacks and the flow of movement.
  • Switch-ups between a “World-Immersion Mode” (which minimizes UI, prioritizes certain visual effects, and keeps the camera closer with a side-angle view) and “Action Mode” (which pulls the camera back to a top-down perspective, keeps critical UI elements visible, and prioritizes combat and action).

To commemorate the announcement, the original CRYSTAR and CRYMACHINA are both on sale for up to 60% off on the eShop until May 7th. For more information on CRYMELIGHT, visit www.cs.furyu.jp.
