Following the game’s recent reveal, Sega and Delightworks released the first gameplay in the form of a special 23-minute anime episode of Sakura Kakumei: Hanasaku Otome-Tachi, which means Sakura Revolution: Blooming Maidens.
The game will be released in Japan this year for iOS and Android.
Watch the trailer here-
Not only the animation by Cloverworks shows plenty of gameplay, but we also take a look at cutscenes, and we get to listen to the theme song “Sakura Hikaru Revolution” performed by Aki Hata.
The game is set in the 100th year of the Taishou era (71 years after the latest Sakura Wars game). Japan has been devastated by the Imperial Capital’s Great Disaster 16 years before. It was rebuilt thanks to the energy based on spiritual power named “Mirai.”
Yet, following the building of the New Tower of the Imperial Capital, cherry blossoms have stopped blooming, and attacks from demons have intensified.
The special 23-minute anime episode showcases many more characters than the previous reveal, which isn’t surprising considering that this is a mobile game for iOS and Android.
Sakura Kakumei has been confirmed to be free to play the game, including various pre-registration rewards. Registration is going on the platform of Google Pay.
This free to play RPG game’s gameplay looks similar to the turn-based gameplay in Fate/Grand Order while the PS4 game ditched tactical RPG gameplay for a more hack and slash approach.
More details will be out soon. Till then, let’s savor the taste of the animation only!
