Cygames Unveils English Version of Uma Musume Pretty Derby

Great news for fans of the Uma Musume Pretty Derby anime! Cygames has officially announced an English version of its popular horse girl racing simulation game. The Japanese version has already garnered significant praise.

What's New?

Cygames has launched an official English website, YouTube channel, and X (formerly Twitter) account to keep the global audience updated on the game's progress.

For newcomers, 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 in February 2021 for Android and iOS, the game features horse girls – racehorses reincarnated as girls – striving for idol stardom while competing in the "Twinkle Series," a national sports entertainment event.

While a global release date is pending, characters like Gold Ship (Team Spica) have already appeared in global titles such as Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising, hinting at future crossovers once the English version launches.

When Can I Play?

The exact release date remains unannounced, but the game will be free-to-play and available on Android and iOS. Check the official website for updates.

Here's the official trailer:

A playable demo of the English version will be available at Anime Expo 2024 (Los Angeles Convention Center, July 4th-7th).
