“They can’t have ice cream, not anymore!”

So, hey, you ever find yourself just wondering where those Switch 2 game updates are hiding? Like, they’re probably in some corner of 2089 Japan… no, really, that’s where! Apparently, I missed the memo, but D3Publisher is stepping in to set us straight. Mark your calendars or whatever, because Full Metal Schoolgirl is landing on October 23rd.

Developed by Yuke’s—the masterminds behind EARTH DEFENSE FORCE: World Brothers 2 and AEW: Fight Forever—this one’s an “action-packed adventure with a heavy-duty attitude.” Seriously, watch the reveal trailer. It’s got me equal parts excited and confused, in the best way.

Anyway—hang on, let’s let the press release handle this part:

Imagine it: 2089, Full Metal Schoolgirl drops you into a wild version of Japan where Meternal Jobz runs things. They’re this creepy corporate overlord with zombified cyborgs—called the “Working Dead”—keeping the hustle eternal. You’re a cyborg schoolgirl (yeah, with weapons and all) climbing their 100-floor tower to bust up undead workers, a nefarious CEO, and security systems that would give your local mall cop nightmares. All for revenge, they say. Or, maybe just because you can?

Nobuyuki Okajima from D3Publisher sums it up as rebellion meets chaos. Close-quarters combat in a capitalist meltdown, with some livestreaming thrown in. Makes you wonder if the future even needed to be, well, the future, right?

In this chaotic dance that is Full Metal Schoolgirl, here’s what players get into:

– Revenge as a schoolgirl terminator: You’re in charge, a cyborg with the whole arsenal deal. Meternal Jobz doesn’t stand a chance, except they do, with their relentless “Working Dead.”
– Close-quarters combat where the skyscraper itself seems like it’s plotting against you. Seriously, each run feels like a new challenge thanks to a security system that’s as fickle as my morning coffee routine.
– Livestream to survive—make content, get rewards. The audience isn’t just watching; they’re your lifeline, cheering or maybe even jeering. Feels like real life sometimes, doesn’t it?

Oh, by the way, you can’t pre-order Full Metal Schoolgirl for the Switch 2 just yet. But, hey, the official website’s up and buzzing with more stuff to sink your curiosity into.

I guess we wait (impatiently, most likely) to dive into this dystopian spectacle, or whatever it turns into. What a world, huh?
