Crunchyroll Games to release The Eminence in Shadow: Master of Garden on November 29
Crunchyroll Games will unveil a new video game based on the popular anime series The Eminence in Shadow.
Announced yesterday, The Eminence in Shadow: Master of Garden will be released on mobile phones and PC on November 29. Pre-registration for the game is live right now here. Anime NYC attendees will be able to test the game before its release via a demo at the Crunchyroll Games booth. An announcement video can be seen below.
A synopsis for the game reads:
Not the main character, and not the last boss. The one who lurks in the shadows of the storyline and holds all the power, hiding his true abilities by acting like a side character. The boy who longs to be a 'Shadowbroker' lives an unobtrusive life as a side character, training to gain magic power until he's killed in an accident and reincarnated into another world.
Reborn as Cid Kagenou, the boy decides to enjoy himself in this other world with a made-up scenario about "the Eminence in Shadow." He starts fooling around with secret maneuvers against an evil cult that he born from his imagination... and it turns out that the cult really does exist! The girls he took on as his subordinates on a whim began worshiping Cid as Shadow, and before he knows it, Cid has become a true "Eminence in Shadow." Before long, Cid—along with his mysterious group the Shadow Garden—will destroy the darkness of his new world.
