Crunchyroll announced today that the highly-anticipated anime RPG mobile game, Princess Connect! Re: Dive has launched globally!
The story of Princess Connect! Re: Dive follows Heroines to fight spirited, real-time battles across the land of Astraea. Players will collect and strengthen characters with different abilities and deepen their bonds to unlock exclusive story content. Fans also have the chance to unlock the fan-favorite character Djeeta from the fantasy RPG Granblue Fantasy.
The response to the game has been exceptional as the game amassed over 800,000 global pre-registrations in a very short time span. Pre-registrations opened only a little over a month ago on December 3, 2020. As a result of this milestone, all players will receive 1,000 jewels and an additional 2,100 jewels for surpassing 500,000 pre-registrants! Jewels are the in-game currency and can be used to unlock new characters and items.
Princess Connect! Re: Dive is also teaming up with Hololive Production, a talent agency for Virtual YouTubers, to bring fans sneak peeks and special livestreams of the game alongside Hololive EN! Below you can find a lineup of upcoming events with the Vtubers on their respective channels and at each event, five lucky players will win an additional 1,500 Jewels:
- January 19 – Global Launch Celebration stream with Amelia Watson
- January 21 – Fan Art Stream with Ninomae Ina’nis
- January 23 – Karaoke Stream with Gawr Gura
The game also features cinematics created by popular light novelist Akira as the main scenario writer, composer Kohei Tanaka who wrote the main theme song for Sakura Wars, and WIT STUDIO.
The game is available now on both iOS and Android devices. The game will also be the official sponsor for this year’s Crunchyroll Anime Awards!
