Shinichirō Ōtsuka (Re:ZERO-Starting Life in Another World-) is designing the characters. Tsunomaki Watame, a hololive VTuber, will perform the theme song “Etrange Overlord” composed by Noriyasu Agematsu of Elements Garden.
The game will be showcased at this year's Tokyo Game Show from September 26-29. The event will feature a demo, a promotional video, and a preview of the theme song.
Kitayama launched Etrange Overlord: Hansei Shinai Akuyaku Reijо̄, Jigoku ni Ochite Kareinaru Happy Life Musо̄ on the Shōsetsuka ni Narō and Kakuyomu web novels in February 2023. The story follows Etrange, a villainess who was executed. When she wakes up, she falls into hell and begins to enjoy it.
Hekaton launched a manga adaptation in Kadokawa's Dengeki Maoh in March. Kadokawa will release the first compiled book volume on September 27.
