''This article is about an upcoming Alicesoft game. Please leave speculation and hearsay on the Talk Page. This page is only for confirmed information.''

Rance IX: The Helman Revolution is the title for the 11th game in the canonical storyline of the Rance series. It is confirmed to take place in Helman and will likely include a long-term goal of having sex with the Empress of Helman, Sheila Helman. It will likely be an RPG game in the tradition of Rance, and is likely to feature a turn based tactical RPG system like Pastel Chime 3 Bindseeker, while incorporating the system of Sengoku Rance and Rance Quest for deciding order of action.

Concept art has recently been released, confirming the inclusion of various characters and implications of certain scenes (see below for some of the images and their details). Their official website is scheduled to launch on 14th November, 2013.

The game itself is currently slated to be released in Spring of 2014.
