Idea Factory International has announced a western release for Temirana: The Lucky Princess and the Tragic Knights, a new otome visual novel.
Temirana: The Lucky Princess and the Tragic Knights is coming west sometime in 2025 for Nintendo Switch. A physical standard and limited edition will be available to preorder on the IFI Online Store.
Temirana: The Lucky Princess and the Tragic Knights was originally released for Nintendo Switch back in April of 2023.
Here’s a rundown on the game, plus a new trailer:
In this world, one’s status and occupation are determined by the month they were born. About 15 years ago in the eastern kingdom of Temirana, the third princess was born: a baby with a birthmark on her forehead.
This child was rumored to be the “Cursed Princess,” and was forced to live in a house far from her family, away from the castle. But things are about to change.
As her 16th birthday approaches, she attends the dueling tournament known as Helis Duelm. There, she sees five men glowing with a dazzlingly strong light.
Indeed, the “Cursed Princess” possessed a special and lucky power. Whenever her life might be in danger, people and places would shine as if to warn her.
Those acquainted with her power warn that those men may have shone because they were dangerous…but she knows their light is different from any she’s seen before. Trusting her intuition, the princess invites the five men to join her order of knights.
However, some of them have no experience with the sword, and others lack interest in knighthood at all. Can the princess and her small company of five knights overcome the tragedy on the horizon?
