DONUTS GAMES has officially announced their forthcoming game, Girls Band Cry: First Riff, currently in development for Android and iOS platforms. This exciting new title is being crafted in collaboration with Toei Animation and takes inspiration from the popular anime series Girls Band Cry, which has captivated audiences since its debut.
Prepare for a fun ride as the anime expands with games and films
Girls Band Cry: First Riff draws its narrative from the music drama anime that aired in Japan from April to June 2024, featuring 13 gripping episodes. The anime follows Nina Iseri, a determined high school dropout who serendipitously meets Momoka. Their shared passion for music ignites an inspiring journey as they collaborate to assemble a dynamic girl band that brings together other talented females, encapsulating themes of friendship, ambition, and resilience.
Now, while I may not have initially been the biggest fan of the anime, the recent announcements certainly have piqued my interest. As the game’s genre remains under wraps, there’s speculation surrounding a potential rhythm or rhythm-based RPG that aligns closely with the show’s musical themes. The teaser trailer hints at exciting gameplay, showcasing the band’s performances and Nina’s spirited efforts to promote their concerts throughout the city.
Players attending TGS 2025 will get an exclusive sneak peek
In addition to the game, Toei Animation has unveiled plans for an original film, complementing the ongoing production of two-part compilation films. This commitment to expanding the Girls Band Cry franchise signals a robust investment in its future, illustrating a strategy to cultivate a successful and enduring brand that could potentially draw in new fans like myself.
Girls Band Cry: First Riff will also take center stage at the highly anticipated Tokyo Game Show 2025, where attendees can expect to experience a demo of the game, view the teaser trailer, and snag exclusive promotional items. While specific details regarding the game’s launch date are still to come, excitement is brewing as development continues for both Android and iOS platforms. Stay tuned for ongoing updates as this captivating project progresses!
