Toei Games announces 3 titles to be published! Challenging the game field with original works

This post is also available in:

Toei Corporation (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, President CEO: Fumio Yoshimura) has announced three titles that will be published by Toei Games, a game business launched as a new business.

For a long time of 75 years since its founding, Toei has been weaving “monogatari” in movies, dramas, stages, etc. Toei Games’ concept is to deliver that “story” in the form of a game this time. The “story” here is not just a word that refers to a story as a plot, but also defines a story that stands out strongly with attractive characters or an overwhelming worldview.

The three titles in this lineup are not using existing IPs owned by Toei, but are all completely new original titles.

Below are three titles scheduled to be published by Toei Games.

KILLA

Valhalla, a lonely girl who was wandering in the wilderness after an orphanage was burned down by the war. Her master, who shared the light of “life” with her and was bound by more than family ties, was brutally murdered. At the time of her death, she left only one word – “Kill Ra.”

Eventually, on the mysterious island led by Valhalla, a “tea party” begins to grant all wishes. Nine suspects with the name “La” gathered.

KILLA is a mystery adventure set in a nightmarish dark and fantastical world of puppetry. The player must infiltrate the suspect’s memory with the ability of “resonance” and combine fragments of dreams to weave the truth.

Who is the “Ra” who killed his master? The curtain on the beautiful but cruel stage is now rising.

HINO

In a world where darkness reigns, the girl wakes up. A girl wakes up in an abandoned nursery school,

Hino. What gave her vitality as she fell helplessly was a “light bulb cane”. Unidentified monsters appeared in front of her.

A strange companion who wants a can of café au lait “Momoni Skeleton”.

The two of them seek a place of rest and step into the darkness. Is there an end to this dark world?

As they navigate through the world of rampant monsters, Hino and Momoni skeletons get closer to their true identities.

Another “story” that is different from the original is a shocking truth. All mysteries await you at the end of the darkness.

The significance of video companies aiming for original IP from games

When I look at these three titles, I feel that Toei has a lot of strong IPs for the mass market, and the seriousness that can be seen from the choice to challenge the game field with completely original new works.

While games are big if they hit, it is also an area where the difficulty of gaining recognition and promotion is high. How will Toei’s brand power and publicity resources, which have been cultivated over many years as a video company, be returned to creators in Japan and abroad? I think this will be a very interesting move in the industry.

The game community is entering the game industry one after another, but we would like to pay attention to Toei’s movements in the future.
