Exciting news for fans of the Uma Musume Pretty Derby anime! Cygames has officially confirmed 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 dedicated to the global release of Uma Musume Pretty Derby. This ensures fans worldwide receive regular updates.
For newcomers, Uma Musume Pretty Derby is part of a larger multimedia franchise encompassing anime, manga, and more. Its popularity stems largely from the successful anime series.
Initially released in February 2021 for Android and iOS in Japan and Asia, the game features horse girls—racehorses reincarnated as girls in an alternate universe—who strive for idol stardom while competing in the "Twinkle Series," a national sports entertainment spectacle.
While a global release date remains unannounced, appearances of characters like Gold Ship (Team Spica) in global titles such as Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising hint at future crossovers once the English version launches.
When's the English Version Arriving?
Although a specific release date is yet to be revealed, 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 (Los Angeles Convention Center, July 4th-7th).
