Today, DMM Games opened the teaser site of what appears to be a brand-new game of the Muv-Luv series.
While the title has not been announced officially, the URL of the website reads “Muv-Luv Girls Garden.”
The official art displayed on the site showcases a pink-haired girl in front of a school, and the sign on the wall bears the logo of Hakuryo High School, the setting of the Muv-Luv series.
That being said, the Katakana “ザルトゥーム” doesn’t mean anything I am aware of, the first two kanji mean “Academy” and the rest of the kanji are unreadable.
You can check out the artwork for yourself below.
The accompanying press release still doesn’t mention the series explicitly, but mentions that this is a school game featuring battles and beautiful girls. It also identifies it as a free-to-play fully automatic idle RPG that will be released for PC (via browser and DMM player) and Android via the DMM store.
Registrations and likely a further reveal will happen on July 1, 2025. Interesting, that’s the day after the closure of Muv-Luv’s latest mobile game Muv-Luv Dimensions, which will shut down on June 30.
Development will be handled by KMS Games, which creates some of the more popular games on the DMM Games platform, and Exnoa, which operates the platform.
The world has been created by Hayato Tashiro, who was one of the founding members of âge and worked on the scenario of multiple Muv-Luv games, while the original character design is attributed to Hasama and the character design to Siino / Pro-p.
This is actually not the first mobile game dedicated to the series released by DMM. The prominent Japanese publisher released Muv-Luv Alternative Strike Frontier in 2016 and kept it alive until 2018.
In other Muv-Luv news, Fuzz has recently announced that an early access version for backers of the simulation RPG Muv-Luv Tactics will launch in Late August, 2025.
We recently got a video (which you can see below) showing development progress, while a trial version with 3 missions will be delivered to backers on June 30.
If you’re unfamiliar with the franchise, it was created by âge and it’s mostly focused on sci-fi visual novels that debuted in Japan in 2003.
The original game for PC (which actually includes two visual novels, Muv-Luv Extra and Unlimited) was followed by Muv-Luv Alternative completing the original trilogy in 2006. It’s considered by many one of the best visual novels ever written.
The trilogy was ported to several platforms including PS3, Xbox 360, PS Vita, Steam, and recently Nintendo Switch, and it was finally localized in English in 2016 following a very successful Kickstarter campaign.
Several additional visual novels have since expanded the franchise’s universe, and we also games featuring different genres like the action RPG Project MIKHAIL: A Muv-Luv War Story.
Incidentally, the enhanced edition of another of âge’s most popular visual novels, Kimi Ga Nozomu Eien, which is widely considered Muv-Luv’s prequel, has recently been released on Steam with an English localization for the first time.
Recently, the creators of the series revealed a fairly extensive roadmap of games aiming to revitalize the series.
