About VenusBlood HOLLOW International
VenusBlood HOLLOW International tells the tale of Helvetia, a once‑holy land now ruled by four demon queens after the fall of goddess Elnath. Empress Karvia, backed by the elite Black Arme Vapula led by Leonhardt Arknoah, seeks to dominate the empire while the Dark Lords wage war on each other.
The title mixes adventure, RPG, simulation and strategy in a single‑player experience for Windows, with family‑sharing support. Players command large battalions, customize squads, manage internal resources, awaken captured Dark Lords, and navigate branching story routes that lead to multiple Law and Chaos endings.
01 / THE GUIDE
Battalion Battles
The Battalion Battle system fields three squads of six units each, letting you command all eighteen units at once. Orders and preset tactics cause units to clash, sometimes deciding the outcome before the fight fully begins.
Because every unit acts according to your commands, the system rewards careful planning and quick adaptation. Watching the chaos unfold helps you refine tactics for future engagements.
- Observe early skirmishes to fine‑tune preset tactics before committing full forces.
- Balance offensive and defensive orders to avoid friendly fire between squads.
02 / THE GUIDE
Customizable Squad
You can assemble squads from commander units, common units, or any mix based on affinities. Units may be raised, equipped, and given titles that unlock skills unavailable otherwise.
This freedom lets you craft teams that match a desired strategy, whether focusing on raw power, synergy, or a specific role within the battalion.
- Experiment with different title assignments to discover hidden skill paths.
- Group units with complementary affinities for stronger combined effects.
03 / THE GUIDE
Squad Positioning on the Map
Units can be placed on chokepoints for defensive holds or launched en masse toward enemy bases for capture. Positioning choices directly affect how battles develop across the map.
Strategic placement rewards players who anticipate enemy movement and control key terrain, influencing both casualty rates and objective success.
- Secure chokepoints early to limit enemy advances.
- Coordinate multiple squads for simultaneous base assaults.
04 / THE GUIDE
Awakening System
Captured Dark Lords can be "awakened" to become loyal allies. Full awakening changes their outward appearance and personality, adding new strategic options to your forces.
Choosing whether to awaken or leave a Dark Lord unchanged influences both gameplay capabilities and narrative outcomes, affecting later story branches.
- Awaken Dark Lords early to integrate their abilities into your forces.
- Consider the narrative impact of each awakening on ending routes.
05 / THE GUIDE
Difficulty Modes & Multiple Endings
The game offers several difficulty settings, an easy‑mode "Win Skip" that lets you bypass battles for story focus, and a New Game Plus mode that carries progress into higher difficulties.
Player decisions steer the story toward Law or Chaos routes, each with unique endings and sub‑endings, while a post‑clear battle‑royale mode provides additional replay value.
- Use Win Skip to explore narrative branches without combat fatigue.
- Activate New Game Plus to test higher difficulties with your carried-over progress.
