Shin Sakura Wars Announced for PS4, Set for Worldwide Release

Sega has unveiled the latest game in the Sakura Wars franchise at this year’s Sega Fes.

The new game is titled Shin Sakura Wars, and it’s set for release on PlayStation 4 in winter 2019 for Japan and in spring 2020 for the west. Featured above, you can view the announcement trailer for the game.

Here’s a rundown on the game:



The stage is set in a romanticized version of 1940s Imperial Tokyo. 10 years ago, a cataclysm resulted in the devastating loss of the Imperial Combat Revue of Tokyo, the capital’s global defense force operating out of the Imperial Theater. The theater has since fallen on hard times and risks closure. As captain of the new Tokyo revue, it’s up to you to mend the hearts of your troops and restore the Imperial Theater back to its former glory!

 With its strong emphasis on character-driven storytelling and relationship building, fans will find plenty to love with Project Sakura Wars!

Key Features:

  • The Most Immersive Story Yet–During your adventure, you will be able to interact with a colorful cast of characters through the dynamic LIPS dialogue system, where what you say and how you say it has a profound impact on these relationships both off and on the battlefield.
  • A Rewarding Battle System–Armed with powerful mechs known as “spiricle armor,” the gameplay is augmented by a deep and robust combat system that takes full advantage of each squad member’s unique abilities.
  • An Eye-catching Anime Production–Complete with gorgeous animated sequences and dramatic character arcs, the story will leave you hungry for what happens next.
  • Project Sakura Wars will feature Japanese voice acting with subtitles in English, German, French, and Spanish. The official teaser site is now available at games.sega.com/sakurawars/.
