The Great Villainess: Strategy of Lily Release Window Announced
Co-developers Alliance Arts, WSS Playground, and One or Eight have revealed that their deception-based turn-based strategy game, The Great Villainess: Strategy of Lily, is set to launch in spring 2025 for Windows PC via Steam. Players can already try out a demo of the game.
Daichi Saito, CEO of WSS Playground, shared, “The Great Villainess delves into an alternate world where media holds magical influence. We urge demo players to contribute their feedback to our development process; we eagerly await your thoughts!”
Here’s an overview of the game, along with a fresh trailer:
Embark on a journey with Scarlet, a rebellious duchess wrongly accused of murder for defying societal norms. Evade the imperial forces hunting her down, while working to clear her tarnished reputation. Teaming up with Lily, a time-traveling streamer, persuade enemy generals of Scarlet’s innocence, garner their support, and potentially spark a rebellion.
In a time devoid of internet, utilize the power of media to outsmart rival armies. Take to the skies on an imperial airship, disseminate (sometimes fabricated) news from above, and sway public opinion to sway the tides of every battle.
Empower Scarlet’s army through charm: capture enemy soldiers, then influence them with propaganda. Plant seeds of uncertainty in enemy leaders’ minds to disrupt supply lines, redirect troops, and outflank distracted units to weaken their ranks.
