After a cross-promotional stream, the Hololive EN Princess Connect Collaboration has only gotten more intense with the release of a new song by one of Hololve EN’s members.
Titled Ibasho (Where I Belong) , the song features vocals by Calliope Mori from Hololive EN, Mori has also done a stream previously to promote the English version of Princess Connect Re:Dive.

The Princess Connect Re:Dive Twitter posted a short snippet of the song, along with promotional art featuring Mori and the girls from Princess Connect. The art was done by Twitter artist Rosuuri.
Neither side has explained how the song is planning to be used, or if it will be streamed via music sites like Spotify and Apple Music, where Mori’s debut EP was previously ranked #1 on launch.
Considering how suddenly this collaboration song was dropped, it’s not known if this means the Princess Connect team would be slowly releasing more content featuring the other Hololive EN members.
Vtubers are no strangers to gacha game collaborations- In the past month, “0th Gen” Sakura Miko appeared in Vanguard ZERO’s English release, along with three other members being promotional cards for the rhythm game D4DJ. While she’s not in the game directly, Mori’s feature in promotional materials for Re:Dive is a good sign that Hololive’s English-speaking branch is picking up in popularity.
A tale that resonates: the tremendously popular RPG, Princess Connect, is here for a global audience.
Princess Connect! Re: Dive is finally available worldwide! A blockbuster title that enveloped Japan and China with its success, the game arrives upon new shores thanks to an exciting collaboration between Crunchyroll Games, Cygames, and Funplex.
