Dark Sci-Fi x Kaguya-hime x Rhythm Action 'MoonHack' Set for 2027 Release from Indie Game Brand 'ASTRA'!

Astro Production Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Tokyo, Representative Director: Tomo Ariga) announced its new title from the indie game brand 'ASTRA', the original game 'MoonHack (Moon Hack)'.

First public reveal today, July 7th! 'MoonHack' Promotional Video

This work is a cyber-noir adventure that combines a dense story experience with rhythm action, set in a world that fuses 'dark sci-fi' with 'Kaguya-hime (Japanese mythology)'.

Set in the future society of 2125, where emotions, romance, and even creative activities are managed by AI, a girl named Tsukuyomi Kaguya, an old-model AI deemed illegal, rebels against the world with the power of song, alongside girls whose "humanity" is considered a crime.

Character design is by illustrator Noyu, and music is by Ukiyone. The game is scheduled for release on Steam in 2027.

Worldview

2125.

Optimization by AI has removed many anxieties from humanity.

There is no need to work.

There is no need to pay taxes.

There is no need to worry about the future.

There is no need to decide who to love.

Emotions are measured, lives are optimized, and society is quietly maintained.

It was a safe, rational, and happy existence with few mistakes.

However, within that happiness, humanity had lost the freedom to choose for itself.

'MoonHack' is a cyber-noir adventure where girls, whose "humanity" has been recorded as a crime in this AI-managed society 100 years from now, rewrite the rules of the world through song.

It appears the girls have succeeded in hacking the official X account of the 'Human Optimization Plan', operated by Sovereign, the director of the Human Optimization AI Organization [AEGIS].

Starting today, the official X account for the 'Human Optimization Plan' will become the official X account for 'MoonHack'.

Exhilarating and Charming Music that Enhances the Story

What is the Indie Game Brand 'ASTRA'?

ASTRA is an original indie game brand by Astro Production Co., Ltd., with the concept of "creating experiences that remain as 'memories' after playing."

Rather than focusing on operability or play volume, ASTRA provides a game experience that strongly appeals to players' emotions through experiential action ADV works that fuse "high immersion as a story experience (narrative)", "emotional uplift through BGM and vocal tracks (music)", and "visuals and motion integrated into the presentation (action)". Each title is an original work primarily distributed on Steam, with plans for global expansion, targeting not only Japan but also Asian users who are interested in storytelling and visual expression, including China, South Korea, and Taiwan.
