The Great Villainess: Strategy of Lily Launches on PS5 and Switch 2 December 2

One or EIGHT, WSS playground, and Alliance Arts have announced that their crowd-controlling turn-based strategy title, The Great Villainess: Strategy of Lily, will be released for PlayStation 5 and Switch 2 on December 2, 2026. The title is available on PC via Steam.

Set in a pre-internet empire on the verge of collapse, the game follows tech-savvy livestreamer Lily as she travels back in time to save Duchess Scarlet from a wrongful execution. What follows is a tactical revolution fueled by misinformation, shifting loyalties, and psychological warfare.

Turn-based combat rewards deception and strategy. You can capture defeated captains to grow Scarlet’s army or eliminate them to level up stats. Each decision shapes both characters’ development and can lead to multiple story outcomes. Scarlet can also build relationships with allies, unlocking Unison skills.
