Full Metal Schoolgirl: Office Drones Beware
Set in a *futuristic Japan* where office workers are forced to work 24/7, the game lets you play as a fully armed cyborg heroine on a mission to dismantle the monstrous Meternal Jobz corporation. As you fight your way up a towering 100-story office building, you’ll face off against all kinds of “Working Dead” corporate slaves and a relentless security system. The gameplay is all about fast-paced shooting, slashing, and upgrading your cyber-schoolgirl as you go.
Developers With a Sense of Humor
Full Metal Schoolgirl comes from Yuke’s—known for their pro wrestling games and Earth Defense Force spinoffs—and D3Publisher, famous for the gloriously campy The OneChanbara series. The trailer (both in English and Japanese) makes it clear that the team is having fun with the concept. The Japanese trailer even features a catchy theme song that you might find yourself humming after watching.
Livestreams, Unlockables, and More
One of the quirkier features? The cyborg schoolgirls livestream their battles in-game, with viewers sending donations and upgrades as you play. Naturally, there will be a range of unlockable and paid outfits for your heroine—because what’s a Japanese action game without some wild costumes?
When and Where Can You Play?
Full Metal Schoolgirl is set to launch on October 23 for Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, and Windows PC (via Steam and Epic Games Store). Whether you’re a fan of action games, satirical humor, or just want to see capitalism get a tongue-in-cheek takedown, keep an eye out for this one!
