“Bringing visual novels to Crunchyroll’s game lineup is another example of how we super-serve our fans with entertainment that deepens their love of anime,” said Terry Li, EVP of Emerging Business, Crunchyroll. “Like manga, visual novels are a source material for hit anime and often expand on beloved series. It is important to offer that content to our audience as part of their membership”
In November 2023, Crunchyroll announced a partnership with various developers and publishers to bring premium mobile games to Crunchyroll Game Vault. Games will be available without ads or in-app purchases, allowing Mega and Ultimate Fan members to fully enjoy mobile titles without distractions. This is in addition to Crunchyroll’s vast streaming library of anime with popular series like SPY x FAMILY, Jujutsu Kaisen, Attack on Titan, and One Piece.
