Akihabara News (Tokyo) — Mobile gacha game JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Golden Hymn is in development following the Netflix hit JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean.
Japanese manga artist Hirohiko Araki is best known for his long-running and successful series JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure. And with its recent anime adaptation released on Netflix, this has allowed Araki’s franchise to reach new heights.
Following the success of the adaptation, a new mobile gacha game is currently under development by Japan-based software company KLab, best known for its production of successful anime games such as YuYu Hakusho and Bleach: Brave Souls.
Gacha game mechanics typically involve players buying in-game currency to purchase a never-ending wave of characters from events or external game collaborations.
This gacha game was originally set to be released in Chinese-speaking regions exclusively, such as mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau. However, the popularity of the series on Netflix convinced the developers to go global.
