Assault Lily: Last Bullet: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 09:05, 6 August 2023

Assault Lily: Last Bullet (アサルトリリィ Last Bullet) is a video game for iPhone, Android, and PC (using DMM Game Player) based on the Assault Lily universe. It was originally developed by Pokelabo (in cooperation with acus, AZONE, Bushiroad, Shaft and TBS), and is now operated by AZONE and Shaft. The game is is free to play, but allows players to purchase gacha currency they can use to roll for new characters and 'memoria' (pictures that can be equipped and used in battle to attack, support or heal characters.)

Last Bullet is currently only playable in Japanese and no plans for an English-language version have been announced. A traditional Chinese version, under the name 突擊莉莉Last Bullet, was operated by 9SPlay from November 2022 to May 2023 before shutting down.

Gameplay

Last Bullet's gameplay is very similar to that of another game previously developed by Pokelabo, SINoALICE. Although it incorporates some setting elements such as Rare Skills and the Neunwelt Tactic, it is for the most part an inaccurate depiction of how Lilies canonically fight, with a heavily abstracted concept of Zones and formations, and subskills being completely omitted from the game.

Story

Last Bullet has a main story, which is always playable, and runs 1-3 story events a month that are playable for a limited time. Some memoria also come with short "memoria stories."

Characters

The game initially featured 19 Lilies, split into 3 legions: Team Hitotsuyanagi, Legion Hervör, and Legion Gran Eple. Since then, a large number of other playable characters from other legions have been added. Limited characters from the collaboration events are also playable if you rolled them while they were available.

Legion Stories

The stories of two early events were later made permanently accessible from the "legion story" menu:

Rebellion of Skjaldmær — Legion Hervör's legion story
Colorful Diary — Legion Gran Eple's legion story

In addition, there is a Team Hitotsuyanagi legion story which is a fairly faithful visual-novel style adaptation of the first half of Assault Lily: Bouquet.

Story Events

This does not include the aforementioned legion stories, main story continuations that ran as events, and some extremely short mini events (such as the commemorative story for the Live in Tachikawa Garden concert.)

Unless a translation exists for the event, these event title translations are tentative. Feel free to change them to whichever ones you prefer when you create a wiki page for the event.

Translations

You can find a collection of English-translated story material in Google Docs format here.

Some (but far from all) of the above translations have been typeset onto game story videos on YouTube by GEHENA Subtitle Labs. This is the closest you'll get to the original experience unless Last Bullet gets an official English release in the future.

There is an (incomplete and somewhat outdated) English game guide here.
