About

Xicatrice is a turn-based RPG set in a world where superhuman abilities have become part of everyday life. You play as a former agent of a government group tasked with containing power-related disasters, only to lose your own abilities during a mysterious event. Now you lead a team of students navigating political tensions and moral gray areas as they confront rogue users of these powers. The story unfolds through tactical battles and dialogue choices that shape relationships and outcomes. Nippon Ichi Software known for titles like Disgaea and Professor Layton's challenges brings their signature blend of strategic combat and character-driven storytelling. While early reviews highlight the game's deep narrative and nuanced character arcs, some players note the pacing can feel uneven in later acts.
