The \u201csickly sweet\u201d visual novel RPG, slated to launch in 2026, will be Acacia\u2019s first game with an official English release.<\/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=\"\u914d\u4fe1\u5c11\u5973\u30ce\u88cf\u57a2\u8ff7\u5bae \u30c6\u30a3\u30b6\u30fcPV2 -\u60aa\u610f-\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/f5BF5JkQiZw?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>The Streamer\u2019s Alt Account Labyrinth follows the story of an all-girl band Rag Drops who, after being engulfed with accusations of heinous crimes in an online witch-hunt, get sucked into the otherworld \u201cUrau,\u201d where the darkest corners of social media become real. The game will feature two distinct phases: dungeon exploration and visual novel sections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In dungeon exploration sections, you will be tasked with navigating a monster-infested maze which is a literal physical manifestation of somebody\u2019s secret alt account. Your final goal is to hunt down its owner who is hiding somewhere in the depths of the labyrinth, and get out of the dungeon in one piece. On the other hand, the visual novel sections will be more akin to a social deduction game. You\u2019ll have to identify who the true owner of the twisted dungeon maze is, and give the culprit a proper public execution. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"432\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" src=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251226-554590001.jpg\" alt=\"The Streamer's Alt Account Labyrinth gameplay.\" class=\"wp-image-55461\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251226-554590001.jpg 768w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/20251226-554590001-380x214.jpg 380w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>While the teaser trailers released so far only showcase the characters and visual concept of the title, its description on the Steam store page suggests that the game might have actual combat elements in the dungeon exploration section.
