Shueisha Games officially announced during the Japanese Nintendo Indie World Showcase that Sayil Games' upcoming sci-fi action title Bakudo is scheduled to launch for both the next-generation Nintendo Switch 2 and PC via Steam in 2027. The presentation offered fans a comprehensive look at the project with two distinct promotional trailers.
The game centers around high-intensity battles where players utilize ball-throwing mechanics as a primary combat style. Set within the elite Soliris Academy—a prestigious institution where aspiring Corestrikers gather to prove their worth—the narrative follows a determined protagonist named Yuria. Arriving at the academy in search of her missing father, Yuria immediately jeopardizes her future by breaking academy regulations during her entrance exam to rescue a fellow student, resulting in her immediate expulsion.
Turning points emerge when Aria, the reigning top student of the ranked Stellar Eight, issues a grueling ultimatum: Yuria must defeat all members of the Stellar Eight within a tight ten-day window or face permanent banishment. Aided by her reliable partner Evie, Yuria plunges headfirst into the challenge, unaware of the deeper conspiracies lurking beneath the academy's glittering surface that threaten the fate of the entire world.
