- Orangeblood is a non-terrible JRPG trying too hard to sound cool - 4 February 2020
I haven’t alienated a section of our audience for ages. How many of you like JRPGs? Stand up, come on. Don’t be shy. I won’t point and laugh and call them all terrible. Orangeblood is a JRPG about hip hop. It is about gangsta rap, thus unfortunately preoccupied with guns, murder and posturing. But as a setting for a game about combat… yeah, okay. That makes sense.

An interesting take on Okinawa at the close of the 20th Century, in a timeline different than our own. A story which unfolds with little exposition, in the style of a movie.

PLAYISM has been working very closely with the developer of Orangeblood, Grayfax Software, towards the release of the game.

We will inform you of the release date as soon as it is confirmed.
