Crunchyroll Games reveals online action game One Punch Man: World
A new One Punch Man game is arriving soon via Crunchyroll Games.
Announced today, One Punch Man: World will make its way to Windows PC, iOS, and Android later this year. The game is being developed by Perfect World, who’s best known for the titles Tower of Fantasy and Persona 5: The Phantom X. An announcement trailer can be seen below. Pre-registration is available right now here.
Terry Li, General Manager of Crunchyroll Games and Senior Vice President of Emerging Business, Crunchyroll said this about the title:
“The most ambitious Crunchyroll Games title to date, One Punch Man: World is an immersive online action game that transports players into the universe of One-Punch Man. The game, developed by Perfect World, brings iconic characters and abilities to life with premiere production values that we are excited to unleash on anime fans and gamers.”
A synopsis for the game reads:
Heroes are needed in One Punch Man: World! A sinister wave of monster attacks has left Earth’s cities and the Hero Association under duress. However, after three years of special training, Saitama has become so powerful that he can defeat opponents with a single punch. The thing is, Saitama just does the hero thing for fun, but when every enemy goes down in one punch, overwhelming power can be kind of... boring. Now, in front of the laid-back strongest hero, a new enemy appears. Will he be able to show his full power today?
A third season of One Punch Man is currently in development along with a live-action film adaptation.
