Your CRYMELIGHT Journey
Beginner Guide
How a run works end to end: pick one of three cards after every stage, hold five to form a hand, and start over wiser every time the Queen's army sends you back.
Poker Hands & Card Builds
Which hands are worth chasing, which card to keep when a stage offers three, and why the hand you hold decides how fast the Wonder Dimension spreads.
Repentance & Upgrades
Confession turns the sins you collect into weapon and accessory upgrades, the progress that survives a rewind even when every card is gone.
Characters & Voice Cast
Alice, Mary, Cheshire, Mad, March and the White Rabbit, with the voice actors behind each girl and the sin she carries into the Death Game.

Release Date & Platforms
One console launch, printed twice: November 4, 2026 in the Americas and November 5 in Japan. The Steam version slipped past that date. Everything below unpacks both, plus what your PC needs.
CRYMELIGHT Demo: 1.5–3 Hours Through the End of Chapter 1
A free sample that starts at the beginning of the game and stops at the end of chapter 1. Long enough to build a hand of cards and lose it.
Editions & Prices
Three editions and a price list that changes with the region. The Deluxe soundtrack is also not the same file on Steam as on console.
Platforms: PS5, Switch 2, Steam
The same game three times over, with three different answers on subtitles, boxes and music. Pick the platform that matches the language you read.
CRYMELIGHT Guide: Poker Hands, Wonder Dimension, Repentance
Clear a stage, keep one of three cards, hold five to form a hand. The rest of the game is what that hand does to the floor and what you carry back to the Tea Party Hall.
CRYMELIGHT Characters: Six Sins, Six Voices, One Prison
Six girls, six sins, six voices. Wonderland is a prison for the dead, and every one of them is serving a sentence.
CRYMELIGHT Metacritic and Reviews: 69 From Four Critics
Four outlets have scored the PC build and the Metascore stands at 69, in Metacritic's Mixed band; the PlayStation 5 and Switch 2 entries carry no reviews at all. On Steam the game is still not on sale.
CRYMELIGHT Opening Movie: Love and Guilt, Who Sings It
One song, two edits, and a voice you already know from the cast. The opening is the first thing the game shows and the only place the theme plays.
What is CRYMELIGHT?
CRYMELIGHT is a roguelike action game set in Wonderland, a prison for the souls of the dead. Every cleared stage offers three skill cards and you keep one; five cards in hand form a poker hand, and the stronger the combination, the harder Alice hits.
The moment an enemy dies, an indigo Wonder Dimension spreads across the floor: the wider it grows, the faster you move and the harder you strike. Between runs you return to the Tea Party Hall, confess the sins you carry, and trade them for weapon and accessory upgrades that carry into the next attempt.

Frequently Asked Questions
The questions that decide whether you buy it, and on which platform.
November 4, 2026 on Nintendo Switch 2 and PlayStation 5. The Japanese and Asian releases unlock on November 5 (JST), which is the same moment written in a different timezone. The Steam version did not make that date: FURYU could not clear the pre-release review in time, and no new release time has been announced.
Yes. The full demo runs from the opening to the end of chapter 1 — 1.5 to 3 hours, per the publisher — and downloads from the CRYMELIGHT Steam page. A free trial is also listed on the Japanese PlayStation Store.
Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5 and Steam. There is no Switch 1 version and no Xbox version.
20–30 hours for one playthrough, the figure on the official spec sheet. It is a roguelike: a run that ends early is time you spend again with better upgrades.
Subtitles cover Japanese, English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese and Korean, and the voice track is Japanese. On Steam you get all five; the Japanese and Western console releases ship Japanese and English, and the Asian console release carries the full five-language subtitle set.
No. CRYMELIGHT is a single-player game with no online component.
No. There is no code field and no code campaign. The free extras are store items: the Red Pouch accessory for Nintendo Store pre-orders, the Blue Ticket for PlayStation Store pre-orders, and the six-item DLC set inside the Deluxe Edition.
