Step Into Tenkai Ward’s Underworld

This global launch allows players worldwide to finally explore the shifting underworld of Tenkai Ward, an artificial city built in Tokyo Bay. The story follows Sho Himuro, a reluctant heir thrust into the role of yakuza boss after his predecessor’s death.

What begins as a struggle for survival soon escalates into a fierce conflict over the Orochi’s power—a force rumored to grant any wish.

Rival Factions and Complex Loyalties

Players will navigate a dangerous web of rival groups fighting for control. These include the traditional Hakurou Family, the ambitious Kurojou Family, and the unconventional Shinonome Family.

Outsiders like PHOENIX and the Tenkai Ward Special Police add even more unpredictability to the power struggle. Caught between loyalty, responsibility, and survival, Sho must carve his own path in a city where every choice carries weight.

Storytelling and Presentation

Road59 blends dramatic visual novel storytelling with partially voiced dialogue. Japanese audio is supported with English, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese subtitles, ensuring accessibility for global audiences.
