Sengoku Rance (戦国ランス? lit. Warring States Rance) is the latest game in the Rance series and was released on December 15, 2006. It is the first game to not have a number in the title, even though in-game the name "Rance VII" is displayed on the background of the title screen as well in the main map. This game takes place in a land known as "ＪＡＰＡＮ" (spelled that way in Japanese using full-width English letters), which is partially modeled on Sengoku period Japan. An unofficial translation patch for Sengoku Rance was released on October 10, 2009.
The game takes place in LP0005, during the 4th Sengoku (warring states) era of JAPAN (not "Japan"). It begins with the arrival of Rance and Sill, who upset the power balance of JAPAN, and set the unification of its provinces in motion. Meanwhile, an ancient evil power stirs from its slumber...
