SummerClip has announced that it will release the roguelike 3D action game *Ved: Lycure* for PC (Steam) on September 22, 2026.

An anime-style, fast-paced roguelike action game where the protagonist aims to return from a world of unplayed games to reality

This anime-style 3D roguelike action game follows a protagonist who has wandered into a mysterious game world and, together with other characters, aims to return to reality.

The protagonist is a “responsible adult” who, late at night on the 27th consecutive day of overtime, added the 1,000th game to their library—an action that trapped them in that world. Players control characters with distinct combat styles to defeat the enemies and bosses that stand in their way one after another.

At the heart of combat is the highly flexible “Buff Chain” system. Buffs acquired during a run can be set to trigger on conditions such as normal attack finishes, special attacks, dodge counters, and blocks, allowing you to chain multiple effects together to create your own unique combos and combat style.



The demo released in April 2026 included Chapter 1 of the main story, three playable characters, four boss battles, and approximately 35 types of buffs.

The full release features all four chapters of the main story, along with seven playable characters, 16 bosses, over 150 types of buffs, and more than 50 types of equipment. It also includes a Boss Rush, Endless Mode, and a Training Ground, and the balance for obtaining and leveling up items and character development has reportedly been adjusted.
