EVERYTHING BEGINS WITH A LIE.

In a near-future world where humanoid cyborgs known as “Dolls” have become part of everyday life, international crime has evolved alongside technology.

Take on the role of V.D, an elite Doll investigator assigned to Division 9 of W.A.N.D., an international organization dedicated to suppressing crime across national borders.

Feared by criminals as the “VIOLENCE DOLL” for her overwhelming combat capabilities, V.D does not take pleasure in violence. To her, it is simply the most logical means of eliminating a threat.

As she investigates incidents across the planet Ranunculus, V.D becomes entangled in a vast conspiracy created by those who claim to represent peace, salvation, progress, and revolution.

Someone has to stop them—before it is too late.

■HACK THEM. STOP THEM. CRUSH THEM.

VIOLENCE DOLL combines real-time 3D action combat with a unique close-range hacking system.

The closer V.D remains to an enemy, the faster her Hacking Gauge charges. Staying within an opponent’s most dangerous range allows her to build hacking stocks rapidly—but one mistake can leave her exposed to a devastating counterattack.

Activate hacking to take control of the combat space and temporarily freeze surrounding enemies, including powerful targets. Once their movement has been disabled, unleash melee attacks, gunfire, Arts, and Limit Breaks to create overwhelming combos.

You can keep your distance and rely on firearms, but ammunition is limited and the Hacking Gauge will charge far more slowly. Fighting safely is possible, but the greatest rewards belong to players willing to confront enemies at close range.

However, some enemies protected by military-grade security protocols are resistant to standard hacking. Against these opponents, you must rely on direct combat, defensive systems, careful positioning, and the strength of your build.

■2.5D EXPLORATION MEETS 3D REAL-TIME COMBAT

Explore side-scrolling 2.5D fields filled with hidden routes, environmental hazards, enemies, treasure, and ancient machinery.

Run, jump, dash, hover, and use specialized tools to navigate snow-covered mountains, forgotten ruins, military installations, and other regions across the world.

V.D can conceal her hostility with her Stealth System, allowing her to avoid detection, bypass dangerous encounters, and search for alternate routes through hostile territory.

When combat begins, the game transitions into a real-time 3D battlefield where multiple enemies can attack from different directions. Lock onto priority targets, manage your distance, identify enemy behavior, and decide when to attack, defend, evade, or hack.

BUILD YOUR OWN COMBAT STYLE

Acquire new skills to unlock and develop multiple combat classes. Each class changes V.D’s strengths, available tactics, and approach to battle.

• Fighter
  A close-range class with high physical attack power.

• Gunner
  A ranged class specializing in firearms and distance control.

• Fenrir Knight
  A high-speed class that sacrifices defense for greater mobility.

• Gladiator
  A close-combat specialist designed for aggressive players.

• Kaiser Cyborg
  A special annihilation-focused class capable of maintaining an extended awakened state.

Change classes, equip weapons and armor, select accessories, strengthen abilities, and combine skills to create a combat style that suits you.

V.D can also deploy different types of shields. Some reduce incoming damage, while others sacrifice protection in exchange for reflecting attacks. Choosing the right defensive system can completely change the outcome of a battle.

■EXPLORE A WORLD OF CONFLICTING IDEALS

Travel across multiple nations and regions, each with its own history, political system, conflicts, and hidden agenda.

Investigate abandoned ruins in Sylvana, climb the frozen peaks of the Great Snow Mountain, infiltrate military facilities in Alba, and uncover the truth behind territories that appear peaceful on the surface.

New areas, missions, technologies, classes, and combat options become available as the story progresses. Information collected during investigations can reveal enemy data, historical records, terminology, and clues connected to the larger conspiracy.

A DOLL WITHOUT EMOTIONS. A WORLD DRIVEN BY THEM.

V.D begins her mission as an investigator who evaluates every situation through logic alone.

However, her encounters with soldiers, revolutionaries, scientists, terrorists, corporate leaders, and ordinary citizens gradually force her to confront questions that cannot be solved through calculation.

What separates justice from control?

Can violence remain logical when it is used in the name of peace?

And if a Doll begins to make decisions beyond her original programming, can she still be called a machine?

Uncover the lies surrounding the world of Ranunculus—and decide what the name “VIOLENCE DOLL” truly means.
