Crunchyroll, the anime streaming giant, has just released the critically acclaimed rhythm roguelike, Crypt of the NecroDancer, on Android. Now titled "Crunchyroll: NecroDancer," this beat-driven adventure challenges players with its unique gameplay.
Originally developed by Brace Yourself Games and released on PC in April 2015, the game previously saw limited releases on iOS (2016) and Android (2021). This Crunchyroll release, however, brings a significantly enhanced experience to both iOS and Android platforms, boasting a wealth of new content.
What's Crypt of the NecroDancer About?
Players step into the rhythmically-challenged shoes of Cadence, a treasure hunter's daughter searching for her missing parent within a spooky, music-infused crypt. The roguelike nature ensures each playthrough is unique and unpredictable.
With 15 playable characters, each boasting distinct styles and challenges, players must move and attack in time with Danny Baranowsky's epic original soundtrack. Successfully navigating procedurally generated dungeons requires precision timing, as missing a beat can be fatal. Expect to encounter a diverse cast of enemies, from dancing skeletons to hip-hop-loving dragons!
More Than Just a Port
Crunchyroll's mobile version of Crypt of the NecroDancer isn't simply a port; it's been significantly enhanced. Expect remixes, fresh content, and even crossover skins featuring characters from the popular anime series Danganronpa. Cross-platform multiplayer and mod support are also included.
For fans of Hatsune Miku, exciting news awaits! DLC featuring the virtual pop star, along with the Synchrony expansion, is slated for release later this year.
Crunchyroll subscribers can dive into this rhythm roguelike adventure now on the Google Play Store.
