The game is set in modern times over eight in-game years. Players take on the role of a parent – mother or father, in contrast to previous games in the series – raising a girl of royal descent, and a potential princess candidate. Players must protect the girl after other candidates are killed and she could be the next target. Players manage the girl's education, activities, and personal growth.{{cite news |last1=Vincent |first1=Brittany |title=Raise Royalty in Princess Maker 5, Announced for Steam with April Release Date |url=https://www.shacknews.com/article/104495/raise-royalty-in-princess-maker-5-announced-for-steam-with-april-release-date |access-date=16 October 2024 |work=Shacknews |date=20 April 2018 |language=en}}{{cite news |last1=Tsang |first1=Alan |title=Gainax porting Princess Maker 5 to the PSP this fall |url=https://www.engadget.com/2008-07-06-gainax-porting-princess-maker-5-to-the-psp-this-fall.html |access-date=16 October 2024 |work=Engadget |date=6 July 2008 |archive-date=21 February 2025 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250221045459/https://www.engadget.com/2008-07-06-gainax-porting-princess-maker-5-to-the-psp-this-fall.html |url-status=live }}
