The event promises a thrilling addition to the Crunchyroll Game Vault with a new release hitting the service each week throughout May. The festivities kick off on April 30th with the much-anticipated launch of Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth, a classic from Square Enix.

If Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth doesn't pique your interest, fear not—May has plenty more in store. From the chilling horror RPG Corpse Party to the heartwarming slice-of-life adventure Shin Chan: Shiro and the Coal Town, and the gripping survival horror White Day making its mobile debut, there's something for every type of gamer.
