Crunchyroll Game Vault Expands With Ani-May Event

Crunchyroll's Ani-May Celebration Kicks Off Soon

Crunchyroll's Game Vault is preparing an exciting lineup for its Ani-May celebration, with fresh weekly releases throughout May for fans of niche Japanese titles. The event begins April 30th with the acclaimed RPG Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth.

Valkyrie Profile Leads the Charge

Square Enix's enhanced classic Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth headlines the event launch. This remastered version casts players as the valkyrie Lenneth, gathering warriors for Ragnarok in a beautifully crafted Norse mythology-inspired world.

Diverse May Releases Await

Beyond Valkyrie Profile, May brings an eclectic mix including the horror RPG Corpse Party, slice-of-life adventure Shin Chan: Shiro and the Coal Town, and mobile debut White Day. Additional unannounced titles will be revealed throughout the event.
