ROCOCO GAMES will be bringing *The Perfect Prince* to the Tokyo Game Show 2026. The game will be featured at two different booths: the ROCOCO GAMES booth [09-E18] and the SO-FU booth [09-C67], both located in the Indie Game Area.
This double booth was secured after *The Perfect Prince* was selected once again for the SO-FU program run by Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry (METI). Last year, the game was also selected for the same program.
"The Perfect Prince" Receives Support from METI's IP360 Program
This time, The Perfect Prince was selected in Category 1: New IP Creation Support (Startup Support: SO-FU). This category is part of METI’s Content Industry Growth Investment Support Program (IP360). SO-FU itself is an accelerator program that supports creators and startups from the production stage through to their launch in the global market.
ROCOCO GAMES will use this support to improve the quality of its games while strengthening its promotional efforts in international markets.
Synopsis and Gameplay of The Perfect Prince
*The Perfect Prince* tells the story of a real-life boy. He finds himself lost in the world of a storybook and discovers that the main prince is missing. He then takes the prince’s place to set the plot back on track as it begins to unravel.
Players solve puzzles and engage in light action throughout the game. KIZUNA bonds are formed with the characters they encounter, and the player’s choices shape the story’s branching paths. Combat in this game takes the form of verbal exchanges, rather than conventional combat.
Release Plan for *The Perfect Prince*
The Perfect Prince is the first indie title from ROCOCO GAMES, an indie label under ROCOCO, Inc. that embraces the philosophy of “games that touch the heart.” The game was showcased as a playable demo at the Tokyo Game Show 2025, and development has been ongoing ever since.
"The Perfect Prince" is scheduled for release on Steam in 2027, at a price yet to be announced. More information is available at ROCOCO GAMES official website and accounts X by ROCOCO GAMES. Details about the demos that visitors can play at TGS 2026 have not yet been announced and will be shared through those channels.
