Crunchyroll has announced some very interesting news – they’re getting into the digital games distribution business.

The new avenue is naturally to sell indie Japanese games (because anything else just wouldn’t make sense), and as such they’ve partner with Japanese localization studio, Nyu Media Limited.


Seven titles are already available on the Crunchyroll store, and the launch titles are as follows:

Cherry Tree High Comedy Club

Comedy fanatic and high school student Miley Verisse needs to recruit five people to set up a comedy club in her school, but her nemesis and the head of the student council, Octavia Richmond, isn’t about to make things easy! Fans of the Persona series will love the gameplay in this slice-of-life adventure!

Croixleur Sigma

This high-speed hack-and-slash brawler draws heavy inspiration from Devil May Cry’s Bloody Palace mode and pits players against waves of increasingly difficult enemies. Play as either Lucrezia Visconti or Francesca Storaro as these two friends fight to protect their Queen and country!

Eryi’s Action

Don’t be fooled by its adorably charming looks – Eryi’s Action wants you to die! Put your gaming skills, wits, and mental health on the line in this additively challenging and FUN trapformer! The game you’ll be DYING to beat!

Ether Vapor Remaster

An advanced prototype fighter craft with awesome firepower are at your disposal! Take on overwhelming numbers of enemy fighters and massive bosses and end the war between Lydia and Caldea in this 2.5D multi-perspective arcade action shooter!

Fairy Bloom Freesia

Once upon a time, in a forest called Lita, there lived a sweet and innocent young fairy. Her name was Freesia and her fairy-fu was very, very strong! Use Freesia’s advanced martial arts skills to protect her forest home from invading monsters and humans in this combo-crazy brawler!

Gigantic Army

Pilot the GMR-34 SALADIN and lead the charge as Earth takes the fight to its alien enemy in ASTRO PORT’s heartfelt homage to 16-bit era mech-shooters such as Cybernator / Assault Suits Valken, Mech Warrior, and Front Mission: Gun Hazard!

The eXceed Collection

A trio of bullet-hell shooting games that boasts genre-leading production values and devilishly exciting gameplay. This outstanding value pack collects all three games in the eXceed series. BULLET HELL COMES AT A HEAVENLY PRICE!

 In celebration of the launch of this new partnership, all seven of the games are 1o% percent off, and they’re available on the Crunchyroll Store, until 11:59 PST, tomorrow. So go forth, and buy indie Japanese games!
