Good 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. A Japanese version already boasts excellent reviews.
What's New?
Cygames has launched an official English website, YouTube channel, and X (formerly Twitter) account for 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 Japan and Asia in February 2021 for Android and iOS, the game centers around horse girls—racehorses reincarnated as girls in an alternate reality. They strive for idol stardom while competing in the "Twinkle Series," a national sporting event.
While a global release date remains unannounced, characters like Gold Ship from Team Spica have already appeared in international titles such as Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising, hinting at future crossovers once the English version launches.
When Can We Play?
The English version of Uma Musume Pretty Derby will be free-to-play on Android and iOS, though the exact release date is yet to be revealed. Check the official website for updates. In the meantime, enjoy the official trailer below!
A playable demo of the English version will be available at Anime Expo 2024 (July 4th-7th) at the Los Angeles Convention Center.
