FURYU Corporation is gearing up to unveil Varlet, an intriguing new high school RPG, on both PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch this coming August 26. Are you ready to dive in?
Welcome to the advanced world of Kousei Academy, where education has entered the realm of virtual reality through an innovative network named "Johari." This tool isn’t just about learning—it’s revolutionized how students access information, shop, and even connect socially. However, this leap into virtual reality has sparked an interesting phenomenon: students are increasingly obsessed with gaining approval and attention, driving them to use the app relentlessly. This need has birthed an eerie urban legend, warning of bizarre "Glitches" that can swallow users if their desires spiral out of control. Even more unsettling are the rumors that these Glitches are inhabited by monsters capable of replacing real students without anyone noticing.
Our hero unwittingly stumbles upon the unsettling truth of these tales as actual events unfold within the school halls. Some classmates have already been swapped with these creature impostors, compelling our protagonist to rise to the occasion. As a dedicated member of the Student Support Services, or SSS, you’ll need to navigate a delicate balance. Forge strong friendships, fend off the looming threats, and defend the academy from imminent peril. Yet, the path of relationships is riddled with its own complexities—a bit too much closeness with multiple peers might lead to complications you didn’t foresee.
Take a look at these exclusive glimpses from the game:
