Tokyo Clanpool launches globally in December for PC and Switch in Asia

Boutique publisher eastasiasoft has announced a western release date for Compile Heart dungeon RPG Tokyo Clanpool.

Tokyo Clanpool is heading west first on Windows PC (via GOG) on December 19th and Nintendo Switch in Asia. The previously announced Steam release is no longer planned. A full worldwide release for Switch will come sometime later.

The dungeon RPG was originally released back in 2017 for PS Vita in Japan – this is the first time it is being released overseas.

A physical edition will be available in both a standard and a limited edition via our friends at Play-Asia, with preorders kicking off on July 4th.

Here’s a rundown on the game, plus a trailer:

Fight for the future of Japan!

In near future Tokyo, the government has collapsed following the appearance of a mighty tower extending from the mysterious Reverse City in the sky and connecting with the National Diet Building. Monsters threaten the people of Japan, and it’s up to newly inaugurated Prime Minister Natsume Kannuki to lead her Diet Dolls into battle against them!

Tokyo Clanpool is a dungeon RPG where you’ll take your party of heroines deeper and deeper into the tower to counter the monster threat and learn the truth of its origin. Equip Digiskins to customize characters’ skills and abilities while navigating mazelike corridors in first-person perspective. Turn-based combat is fast and strategic, and with your team’s ether-based powers, you can even float or dig tunnels to alter the structure of dungeons.

But you’ll also have to keep an eye on your citizens’ approval ratings. If your actions are favorable, you can earn valuable bonuses, but if it falls too low, your entire cabinet could resign! Is your administration up to the task?
