The first installment of the visual novel tactical RPG hybrid will be released springtime 2017 and will be launched with the title "Utawarerumono: Mask of Deception". The second title will be launched fall of 2017 with the title "Utawarerumono: Mask of Truth".

The two video games were first launched in Japan for Ps3, Ps4 and PS Vita platforms. "Mask of Deception" was launched as "Utawarerumono: Itsuwari no Kamen" way back Sept. 24, 2015. While the "Mask of Truth" was launched as "Utawarerumono: Futari no Hakuoro" on Sept. 21, 2016.

The video game is centered on the exploits of Hakuoro, the masked protagonist in the "Utawarerumono" visual novel and video game franchise. The video game's gameplay requires little to no interaction as players, most of the time, merely reads texts that pops out on the game screen.
