Uma Musume Pretty Derby Gallops Towards Global Debut

Exciting news for fans of the Uma Musume Pretty Derby anime and racing simulation game! Cygames has officially confirmed an English version, bringing the popular Japanese title to a global audience.

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. The game, initially released in Japan and Asia in February 2021 for Android and iOS, features horse girls—racehorses reincarnated as girls—competing in the "Twinkle Series," a national sports entertainment show.

While the game hasn't had a global release until now, characters like Gold Ship have already appeared in international titles such as Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising, hinting at future crossovers once the English version launches.

When Can I Play?

The exact release date remains unannounced, but the game will be free-to-play and available on Android and iOS. Check the official website for updates.

Here's the official trailer:

A playable demo of the English version will be available at Anime Expo 2024 (July 4th-7th) at the Los Angeles Convention Center.
