DANGEN Entertainment announced LitGirls: Literary Labyrinth and the Girls on October 1, 2026. The dungeon-crawling RPG is developed by Nanairo Enterprise, the team behind Turret and Girls, with GIANTY as development support and DANGEN as publisher. It is planned for release on PC via Steam in the first half of 2027, with the price yet to be determined and a console version undecided. Players form a party of girls based on classic literature, including Alice, Juliet, Dante, and Raven, and explore dungeons holding monsters, traps, treasure, and bosses. Combat is turn-based, with girls arranged in four rows front and back against enemies in the same formation. Two parameters, HP and Mental, govern survival. Characters also lose equipment as they take damage. Music is by Yoshitaka Hirota, who worked on Shadow Hearts. An 18+ version is also planned for a separate PC platform.
The project is the second entry in Nanairo Enterprise's Girls World line after the railgun defense shooter Turret and Girls. Nanairo Enterprise is based in Tokyo and was established in July 2023; GIANTY, founded in 2001, has bases in Japan, Vietnam, and the United States and handles engineering and design support.
In combat, a girl's advantageous position and the enemies she can hit depend on her equipped skills, so holding formation is the core decision. Mental drops from traps and enemy attacks; a breakdown leaves a character unable to act or adds negative effects, and rest restores it, though resting in a dungeon can trigger an ambush. A character reduced to zero HP can die from a follow-up hit and become Lost, a permanent state whose specifications are still under consideration. The LOGOS system brings skill cards into dungeons. Battle LOGOS activate in combat and are drawn at random from the cards brought along after a set number of turns; each can be used once per battle and reused in the next. Passive LOGOS grant continuous buffs. LOGOS are planned as permanent upgrades kept even after a failed run. The base is the Astral Library, where players build parties and view characters in close-up. The camera cut-ins show torn costumes in multiple damage variations, and abnormal mental states include Despair. Supported languages are Japanese, English, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese, with others to be announced.
