Set within the backdrop of an exploitative Japanese company where your co-workers treat you like a traitor over hearsay about your plans to quit, you must get to the bottom of the rumors with your trusty briefcase for protection.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Quit Today - Official Release Date Announcement Trailer\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/A2Yixiey7YI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Quit Today has you exploring the various departments of a heavily exaggerated version of a corrupt company. When it comes to beating up your colleagues, the game features a straightforward combat system comprised of light attacks, charge moves, and supers. This can be further expanded with randomly generated abilities and upgrades to existing ones. You\u2019ll need to upgrade your moveset, as department managers act as bosses for the major sections.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While this is an entirely single-player experience, a handful of NPC companions called Partners will join you on your quest. These include the likes of Magical Momo (a magical girl dressed in a sailor uniform), Richman Ming (a man in a tricked-out wheelchair that shoots clusters of coins), and Yokozuna Chen (a massive sumo wrestler). Partners can be tagged in during battles and upgraded as you progress.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1273\" height=\"714\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1273px) 100vw, 1273px\" src=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/20251024-53278-001.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-53284\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/20251024-53278-001.jpg 1273w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/20251024-53278-001-380x213.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/20251024-53278-001-768x431.jpg 768w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>With its unique art style and premise, Quit Today should resonate with beat \u2018em up fans and anyone working a gruelling, 9 to 5 corporate job.
