Marvelous says Honey ∞ Parade Games could return to console development
Key takeaways
- Financial briefing held for fiscal year ending March 31, 2027
- Shinobi Nexus: Senran Kagura scheduled in Japan later in 2026 for iOS, Android, Windows PC
- Shinobi Master Senran Kagura: New Link ended service earlier in 2026
Marvelous told investors during its first-quarter briefing for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027 that Honey ∞ Parade Games may expand beyond online and mobile titles into the consumer game business, including full-priced console and PC releases, CEO Shinichi Terui said. The comment named Honey specifically while outlining the publisher’s plan for its subsidiaries.
Honey ∞ Parade Games is best known for the Senran Kagura series but has spent recent years on live-service mobile projects such as Dolphin Wave and Shinobi Master Senran Kagura: New Link, the latter of which ended service earlier this year. The studio’s next confirmed project, Shinobi Nexus: Senran Kagura, is another free-to-play entry and is scheduled to launch in Japan later in 2026 for iOS, Android, and Windows PC. Automation Media shared the reporting cited by Noisy Pixel.
Why it matters
If Marvelous follows through, Honey could be handling paid console/PC projects alongside its ongoing free-to-play work — meaning Senran Kagura’s future releases might arrive in both business models rather than only on mobile.
