Crunchyroll launched Crunchyroll Game Vault in 2023 as a perk for the service’s Mega and Ultimate subscribers. The service offered members five games at launch, such as the fighting game River City Girls and the puzzle game Inbento, and has since added more, including Hime’s Quest and ExZeus: The Complete Collection.
Crunchyroll is one of the latest video streaming services to offer games as a subscription. Notably, Netflix began offering games to its subscribers in 2021. All Netflix subscribers have access to the service’s game library, while only the top two Cruchyroll plans — Mega and Ultimate, but not Fan — include access to the Crunchyroll Game Vault.
