Alliance Arts has announced (https://youtu.be/C_OfKwzdSSA) it will be publishing The Great Villainess: Strategy of Lily. Created by developers One or Eight (Lost Epic), WSS Playground (Needy Streamer Overload), and Alliance Art themselves, it?s a strange twist on a turn-based strategy and is coming to PC in 2024.
You play as Duchess Scarlet, who is sentenced to execution for regicide. Head still connected to her shoulders, she escapes with the help of Lily. She?s turned into a prototypical streamer with the ability to incite people into acting out. She uses her newfound powers to capture enemy commanders and intends to ?break? the world.

It looks like things are still rather early in development, but the aesthetic seems to be in place and looks great. 2D characters have an ornate anime look to them, and the 3D world has a voxel appearance. The world, with its heavy depth-of-field blur, reminds me of 3D Dot Game Heroes (https://www.destructoid.com/review-3d-dot-game-heroes/). It?s just very bright and colorful.
There?s also some flirtation going on between Lily and Scarlet, so I?m down for that. I?m not sure about the gameplay. The combat is shown, but I can?t grok the mechanics. It kind of reminds me of that Mii samurai game on 3DS, Warriors Way. Hard to say.
I guess we?ll find out for sure when The Great Villainess: Strategy of Lily launches on PC in 2024.
