Nexon's IO Division, renowned for the hit RPG Blue Archive, announced Project RX in October 2024. The project, developed by RX Studio under the IO Division, targets both mobile and PC platforms. The teaser trailer introduces a 3D isekai-like world emphasizing subculture elements, where players interact with adorable, Vtuber-inspired characters through lifestyle activities such as reading, cooking, and relaxing under a Sakura tree.
The game promises an immersive narrative experience, allowing players to live alongside these characters in a vibrant setting. Built on Unreal Engine 5, Project RX aims for high-quality visuals, as highlighted in the teaser. Leadership includes producer Cha Min-seo and art director Yutoka Mizu, both key figures from Blue Archive, bringing their expertise to this new venture.
While specifics on genre, gameplay mechanics, and systems remain limited, the trailer surprises with a shift to combat sequences featuring stunning skill effects. Cha Min-seo has confirmed that additional information will be shared next year. The reveal builds anticipation for a title that combines slice-of-life vibes with dynamic battles, potentially replicating Blue Archive's success in engaging players with character-driven content.
