CRYMELIGHT is Furyu's upcoming roguelike action game set in the afterlife, where characters confess sins to grow stronger. The game has been positioned as a simultaneous global launch alongside Furyu's other original title, ANOMALITH, with both appearing at gamescom 2026, PAX WEST 2026, and Tokyo Game Show 2026. At Tokyo Game Show, attendees can play a complete demo covering the main story from its start, including battles.

The game's pre-release momentum became visible in early July 2026, when Furyu announced a Steam Deluxe Edition after the title surpassed 50,000 wishlist registrations on Steam. The Deluxe Edition includes an exclusive complete soundtrack of 30 BGM tracks by composer Sakura, a set of six DLC items (weapons and accessories), a digital art book titled "Memoirs of the Invited," a special soundtrack, and a special voice drama. The standard download edition is priced at 3,278 yen, while the Steam Deluxe Edition costs 6,900 yen.

An introduction trailer narrated and set in the prison "Wonderland" introduced protagonist Alice, a girl who has lost her memory, fighting using her sins and playing cards. The official website added voice clips and interactive buttons tied to each character's sin. A confession-themed campaign on X ran until July 10, offering prizes including an original goods set and a 5,000 yen gift card. Demos were also available during the Six One Demo Days event in August, with the demo updating action and UI from its BitSummit PUNCH version.

Furyu's Survival TPS Anomalith Demo Drops August 1

Furyu announced on July 25 that a limited-time demo for its survival third-person shooter Anomalith will launch on Steam from August 1 to August 8. The demo is part of the Six One Demo Days event, a week-long showcase organized by Six One Indie that features around 250 game demos. Anomalith is set in a fictional Showa-era Japan where players control 17-year-old Reona Minazuki, an investigator for the Special Hazard Zone Countermeasures Office searching for a missing friend in anomalous spaces called Otherworlds. The game combines exploration, resource management, and combat against creatures called Anomalies, with 12 unique transformation abilities. A closed demo test held from June 19 to June 28 drew roughly 75% positive responses, with only 18% of participants listing Furyu titles among their favorite games, suggesting the title appeals beyond the studio's existing fanbase. Feedback from that test prompted adjustments including the addition of a Story difficulty and a constant dash setting, which will be in the August demo. Anomalith is scheduled for full release on October 29 for PS5, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC via Steam. A separate demo for Furyu's roguelike action game Crymelight will also be available during the same event.
