What Is Project Rabbit? NovaFlare Soulslike Game Explained

Project Rabbit is an unreleased multiplayer-oriented soulslike action RPG from NovaFlare (Steam lists the developer as novaflare). Official store text reimagines Alice in Wonderland as dark fantasy: you explore the Abyss of Time under the Blood Queen, using dodge, block, parry, and gear-focused combat. This fan wiki is not affiliated with NovaFlare, Round8, or NCSoft.

What kind of game is Project Rabbit?

Steam lists Action, Adventure, and RPG, and the store blurb calls it a “Multiplayer Soulslike” that follows Alice into the Blood Queen’s abyss. In a May 2026 Inven Global interview, NovaFlare described the project as roughly 80–90% soulslike with about 10% extraction-style session structure—not a battle royale label. See extraction vs soulslike for that split.

No public playable build exists as of 2026-11-12, so mechanics beyond marketing and press interviews remain unannounced.

Who is NovaFlare?

NovaFlare is a South Korean studio. Its website lists an address in Seongnam, Gyeonggi, and contact email contact@nova-flare.com.

Inven Global (May 2026) reports the studio was founded by 14 developers who previously worked at NCSoft, left after reorganizations, and received Smilegate startup support. The same interview notes some team members came from Round8 Studio (developers of Lies of P). That staffing overlap is not an official sequel or partnership link; see Project Rabbit vs Lies of P.
