Alright, let’s dive into this tangled mess of a game. So, picture this: It’s set in some wild, not-so-distant future where Japanese office folks, the poor souls, are grinding away literally every hour of the day. And who’s got their backs? This “fully armed cyborg heroine” ready to bring down the entire evil corporate ladder in Full Metal Schoolgirl. Yeah, a schoolgirl wielding justice — believe it or not.
So here’s the scoop. Full Metal Schoolgirl is coming from Yuke’s, those wrestling game legends, and D3Publisher — the brains behind that gloriously over-the-top The OneChanbara series. You get the picture. This game is going full throttle with chaos, flaunting those schoolgirl outfits all around.
Now you, yes you, step into the robo-shoes of one of these techno-schoolgirls, climbing up a 100-story skyscraper run by Meternal Jobz, a name that probably says it all. Picture this: endless floors filled with brainwashed employees, the “Working Dead,” (sounds familiar, maybe too familiar?), trying to stop you from reaching the mastermind CEO. And as you ascend this concrete jungle, imagine trying to fight off pesky office minions and this relentless security setup. Every battle means tweaking and turning your cyber-girl into an even cooler version with all sorts of tech upgrades.
Let me just say — the trailer? Such a riot. Yuke’s is going all in with this ridiculous plotline. Oh, and if you thought the English trailer was something, the Japanese one is like, a whole vibe itself, complete with this catchy, upbeat theme song.
Now, there’s this extra layer of craziness — our cyber-schoolgirls are livestreaming the whole ordeal. Yup, you heard it right. And viewers chucking in donations and extra goodies as they watch. It’s like a futuristic, bloody version of your favorite streaming platform.
Mark your calendars or whatever — Full Metal Schoolgirl hits on Oct. 23. It’s dropping on Nintendo Switch 2, PS5, and hitting up PCs on Steam and the Epic Games Store. Go figure.
