Exciting news for fans of the Uma Musume Pretty Derby anime! Cygames has confirmed an official English release of their popular horse girl racing simulation game. A Japanese version already boasts excellent reviews, and now a global audience can experience the fun.
What's New?
Cygames has launched official English language resources: a website, YouTube channel, and an X (formerly Twitter) account. This ensures fans worldwide receive regular updates on the game's progress.
For the uninitiated, Uma Musume Pretty Derby is part of a larger multimedia franchise encompassing anime, manga, and more. Its popularity stems largely from the success of the anime series.
Initially released in Japan and Asia (February 2021, Android and iOS), the game features horse girls—racehorses reincarnated as girls—competing in the "Twinkle Series," a national sports entertainment event, to become top idols. While a global release date remains unannounced, characters like Gold Ship (Team Spica) have already appeared in international titles such as Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising, hinting at future crossovers.
When's the Release?
The exact release date for the English version of Uma Musume Pretty Derby is yet to be revealed, but it will be free-to-play and available on Android and iOS. Check the official website for updates.
A playable demo of the English version will be available at Anime Expo 2024 (Los Angeles Convention Center, July 4th-7th). Don't miss it!
