Anata no Shikihime Kyouikutan (Nippon Ichi Software) to be announced for Switch tomorrow

Following the success of Disgaea 5 Complete, it was but a matter of time until Nippon Ichi Software would announce new games for the platforms. NIS America has already announced (and even released) several titles, such as Touhou Kobuto: Burst Battle or The Longest 5 Minutes. But nothing from the Japanese side, but this will change tomorrow with the official announcement of Anata no Shikihime Kyouikutan.

This new game is developed by the same team as the one behind Penny-Punching Princess (which is releasing on Nintendo Switch in March in Europe and North America), with Madoka Hanashiro (The Witch and the Hundred Knight 2) as chara-designer.

Anata no Shikihime Kyouikutan is a strategy action game, where you get to play as a Knight who serves as mentor for 4 princess. You have to spend time with the princess in order raise them, while leading soldiers into battle.

You “guide” the princesses through conversations and battles, with two ways to do so: you can either praise them, or scold them. Naturally, you need to choose the right one to raise the princesses the right away. Proper guidance temporarily increase their stats, and stimulate their growth.

Here’s the 4 princess you have to raise:

  • Veronica (voiced by Hiromi Igarashi): leader of the Black Magic Guild, and a genius witch. She wants to conquer the world using fear;
  • Loliati (voiced by Ayane Sakura): a princess and the kingdom’s very own head knight. A bright and positive person, who loves her people;
  • Monmaria (voiced by Rarisa Takeda Tago): the princess of Eudalia, who used to belong to the Noble Business Alliance. Her vassal and mercenary family business is the reason she’s been able to survive after falling from grace and losing her status as noble;
  • Alpana (voiced by Yuuki Kuwahara): the philanthropist princess of the Dragon God Clan, and founder of the Darimakara Faith. Her goal is to have all races co-exist in peace.

Finally, some details about the battle system. In battle, you get to control the protagonist (you), but also the princesses, with various actions to choose from. But that’s not all: you can also lead soldiers by giving them instructions.

Anata no Shikihime Kyouikutan (Switch) will be released on January 25th in Japan, and will cost 6 980 Yen. The first print copies come with a soundtrack CD, featuring a selection of tracks from the game. The Upcoming Games page has been updated!
