A recently aired anime, Idoly Pride, has opened pre-registrations for its corresponding mobile game! There are the usual pre-registration milestones which includes the following:
- 100,000: Gacha currency for 10 pulls
- 200,000: Highest rarity guaranteed ticket
- 300,000: “Only for You” Gold Business Cards
Stylized as IDOLY PRIDE, the mobile game is part of the series’ multimedia project created by the CyberAgent subsidiaries QualiArts, Straight Edge, and Music Ray’n, with character designs by QP:flapper. The anime series aired on 10 January 2021, with a manga serialization by Hiroki Haruse having started earlier in June 2020.
In the game, you take on the role of manager for these idols, organizing everything from their fan meet events, TV appearances and of course, their live performances. You’ll be able to form deep bonds with your idols, with them being able to send messages or even call you about their concerns, apparently including outside of the game. It promises 3D live performances in the game, so pretty much virtual 3D MVs as some recent games – Project Sekai for example – have adopted.
With how new the project is, we’ll have to see how far this will go. The official website for the game does not mention anything about a release date, but at the very least we can assume it’s a rhythm game. If the project piques your interest, be sure to check out their official Twitter as well.
