Tokyo Xanadu (東亰ザナドゥ) is an action role-playing video game for the PlayStation Vita. It was developed and published by Nihon Falcom, out of their desire to create a game of a different type and setting than their two other flagship video game series, The Legend of Heroes and Ys, and has roots in the Xanadu series. The game was released on September 30, 2015 in Japan and on June 30, 2017 in North America and Europe. A PlayStation 4 version of the game, Tokyo Xanadu eX+, has also been released in Japan, and is also scheduled for release in English language regions sometime after the Vita release. The PS4 version will also be ported and released on Steam.

It is an action role-playing game, like the Xanadu series, along with elements from the Persona series of Japanese role-playing games. It has a party-based real-time battle system with dungeon exploration.

With Tokyo Xanadu, Falcom set out to create a game with a different feel than their other flagship video game series, the Ys and The Legend of Heroes/Trails in the Sky series. While the other series have a fantasy setting, the events of Tokyo Xanadu occur against the background of a fictional suburb of modern-day Tokyo called Morimiya City, and contain modern elements like smartphones and social media. Morimiya was based on actual locations in Tachikawa City where Nihon Falcom has its head office: for example, the Morimiya Station Plaza, with its red arch monument and the "Yumine" Department Store, closely resembles the north exit of Tachikawa Station, which has a similar-looking blue arch monument and a branch of the Lumine Department Store. Falcom held promotional activities at various real-world locations in Tachikawa City which resembled in-game locations, including a Tokyo Xanadu-themed menu at the cafe in Books Orion, an actual Japanese bookstore chain also based in Tachikawa City which appears in-game with permission under its own name.
