Do you love bulging eyes and (overly) dramatic stories? Then check out these anime games that are currently available in the Steam Winter Sale 2017!
Currently, there are still some bargains to be found on Steam, as Valve is hosting the Steam Winter Sale 2017 with great discounts. Each day we present various categories from which we select the best games.
Today, we present to you the broad term of the most popular “anime games” on Steam and show you our favorites that you definitely should try out. Enjoy the list!
VA-11 Hall-A: Cyberpunk Bartender Action
Not every game needs ruthless action; sometimes a captivating story is perfectly sufficient. Exactly in this vein is VA-11 Hall-A: Cyberpunk Bartender Action. In a dystopian future where humans are controlled and suppressed by machines, you are a bartender and must keep the guests entertained with drinks. In doing so, they tell you exciting stories from their daily lives and reveal more about a dark game world.
If you are looking for an interesting story that mainly unfolds through text, you should grab this, as VA-11 Hall-A: Cyberpunk Bartender Action currently costs €9.89 instead of the usual €14.99.
Shadowverse
If you enjoy card games like Hearthstone and Magic: The Gathering but have always missed the anime flair, you should take a look at Shadowverse . Several anime characters battle for dominance with their cards. The artwork of the cards is beautifully designed, and the gameplay can convince – fans of Hearthstone will find their way around easily. The game even comes with a voiced campaign and has some cutscenes that better illuminate the characters of the world.
By the way, Shadowverse is Free2Play and thus free. So, no one can go wrong with a quick look into the game.
Danganronpa – Absolute Despair Collection
Anime games don’t always have to be cute and cuddly? Not at all! Danganronpa presents itself as a rather dark detective game. Trapped in a cruel “school”, murders keep happening among the students. In a trial, the protagonist must find out who committed the murder. If he succeeds, he and all the innocent ones can continue to live – if he fails, only the murderer gets to survive, and all others face death.
The “Absolute Despair Collection” includes the games “Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc”, “Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair”, and “Danganronpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls” for currently €38.45 – so 45% cheaper than the usual price of €67.97. For those who enjoy a bit of macabre but incredibly exciting detective entertainment in anime style, this is a must!
Tales of Berseria
With Tales of Berseria, a classic RPG in the best anime optics was released at the beginning of the year. It awaits an exciting JRPG with an action-packed combat system, a dramatic story, and a protagonist who doesn’t conform to the typical clichéd image of a heroine. If you want to lose yourself in a great fantasy world while always yearning for the next cutscene that could rival many a “real” anime, you should grab this now. Tales of Berseria currently costs €19.99 instead of the usual €49.99, which is a whopping 60% off.
Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster
We repeatedly feature representatives from the “Final Fantasy” series in our game presentations, including those from the “anime” genre. While the game does not directly have an “anime” look, the character design and the story remind many players of their favorite anime series. Therefore, we recommend Final Fantasy X and its direct sequel Final Fantasy X-2, which seamlessly continues the story. FFX was the first Final Fantasy for the PS2 and may have caused poor grades for some students who spent night after night immersed in the exciting world of Spira or trying their hand at blitzball. Currently, both games are available in a bundle for €12.49 instead of the usual €24.99.
