Cyber-schoolgirls against a corporation in FULL METAL SCHOOLGIRL. New game from the creators of Earth Defense Force

The developers of Earth Defense Force have announced the action shooter FULL METAL SCHOOLGIRL. The third-person game with anime visuals and an ironic take will be released on October 23, 2025, on PC (Steam/Epic), PS5, and Nintendo Switch 2.

The events take place in 2089, in an alternate version of Japan where the country has been renamed the Great United States of Japan. The economy thrives on the ultimate virtue — “working 24/7”. Everything is controlled by the megacorporation Meternal Jobz. People work until they die — and sometimes even after, plugged into the system as the “working dead”.

The player takes control of two cyber-schoolgirls — Ryoko and Akemi. They are built so they can modify their bodies for any purpose. The girls chose the path of war: each of them has built-in weaponry that can be upgraded.

The gameplay of FULL METAL SCHOOLGIRL is a roguelike: battles on randomized floors of the Meternal Jobz tower, leveling up, gathering resources, and acquiring new modifications. After each death — you grow stronger. There are even in-game live streams: the more viewers, the more income. And with the earned money, Professor Hakase will install new upgrades. The goal is to reach the 100th floor and defeat the corporation's CEO, Kyohei Fukoku.
