Reviving a Classic: The "Uta Macross" Revival Project
In an exciting turn of events, AUGUST Inc. has successfully reached its crowdfunding goal of 300 million yen for the revival of the beloved mobile rhythm game, "Uta Macross," originally known as "Uta Macross: Smartphone De Culture." The revitalization campaign, launched on September 10, 2026, via the CAMPFIRE platform, marks a significant comeback for this cherished title, which concluded its previous service in 2022.
Set to launch on Steam, iOS, and Android, "Uta Macross" promises to bring back fan-favorite characters from across the iconic "Macross" franchise, including elements from "Super Dimensional Fortress Macross," "Macross Plus," "Macross 7," "Macross Frontier," and "Macross Delta." This upcoming title aims to deliver captivating rhythm gameplay featuring a curated selection of songs synonymous with the series.
What to Expect from the "Uta Macross" Revival
Reimagining the Game Experience
One of the key highlights of the revival is the complete restructuring of the gaming system for the offline version. The new rendition will retain essential features from the original version, including live performances and artwork highly praised by fans. To enhance user experience, the gameplay has been optimized for keyboard and mouse control, making it accessible for both returning players and newcomers alike.
A Rich Soundtrack and Customization Options
The base game is set to include approximately 50 popular songs, featuring over 1,000 character illustrations and more than 20 outfits for each songstress. In addition, players will have unlimited free access to gacha draws for increasing the rarity of their collected plates. These features promise to significantly enhance the gameplay, allowing players to experience special performances previously unattainable. Additionally, the developers plan to release multiple downloadable content (DLC) packs featuring additional songs and outfits.
A Collaborative Future with Fans
This revival project was not just a response to the fans' request for a comeback; it reflects the deep connection between the developers and the community. By leveraging the support from the crowdfunding, AUGUST aims to expand the scope of the project, including introducing new platforms and fresh songs through DLCs. Special rewards available exclusively through CAMPFIRE will also be part of this community-driven initiative.
