Exciting news for fans of the Uma Musume Pretty Derby anime and racing simulation game! Cygames has officially confirmed an English version, expanding the game's reach beyond its successful Japanese and Asian releases.

What's New?

Cygames has launched official English-language resources, including a website, YouTube channel, and X (formerly Twitter) account, ensuring global fans receive regular updates on the upcoming release.

For newcomers, Uma Musume Pretty Derby is part of a larger multimedia franchise encompassing anime, manga, and more. The game's popularity stems largely from the success of its anime series, which has cultivated a significant fanbase.

Originally launched in February 2021 for Android and iOS in Japan and Asia, the game features horse girls – racehorses reincarnated as girls in an alternate universe – striving for idol stardom while competing in the "Twinkle Series," a national sports entertainment event.

While the global release date remains unannounced, appearances of characters like Gold Ship (Team Spica) in games like Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising hint at future global crossovers once the English version launches.

When Can We Expect the English Version?

The exact release date is yet to be revealed, but the game will be free-to-play and available on Android and iOS. Stay tuned to the official website for updates.

In the meantime, check out the official trailer below!

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