魔法使いの夜 mobile app launches November 20, 2026
Key takeaways
- iOS/Android release on November 20, 2026
- Original PC game released in 2012; console ports added full-voice and full-HD
- Console versions plus downloads shipped 500,000 units worldwide (includes limited editions)
魔法使いの夜 will arrive on iOS and Android on November 20, 2026, publisher Aniplex announced during the “FGO Fes. 2026” stage event on August 1, 2026. The smartphone edition is a paid app port of the PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and Steam releases that themselves remastered the original 2012 PC visual novel into full-voice and full-HD form.
Aniplex (株式会社アニプレックス) says the smartphone build keeps the full-voice performances and the upgraded visuals while optimizing controls for touch play. The console ports have already shipped 500,000 units worldwide when counting limited edition physical copies and digital sales together; the mobile release is presented as the same buy-once app model. The announcement notes platform trademarks: PlayStation and PS4 (Sony Interactive Entertainment), Nintendo Switch (Nintendo), and Steam (Valve Corporation), with Steam copyright credited as (c) 2024 Valve Corporation and TYPE-MOON ownership acknowledged.
The title traces back to TYPE-MOON and writer Nasu Kinoko’s original 2012 PC release; the upgraded console ports later brought that text-driven story to PS4, Switch and Steam. The smartphone version will use the assets from those console ports, preserving the extended voice cast and the heightened presentation. Aniplex did not publish a store page or price at the time of the announcement; it said further details about the app storefront will be shared later. Also announced alongside the game: the theatrical animation adaptation of 魔法使いの夜 opens November 20, with animation by ufotable and distribution handled by Toho and Aniplex (official site: https://mahoyo-movie.com, official X: @mahoyo_movie).
Why it matters
If you wanted the TYPE-MOON visual novel in your pocket, the concrete takeaway is simple: the sell-once mobile app will deliver the same full-voice, full-HD experience that shipped on PS4/Switch/Steam, and it joins the theatrical release date on November 20 — a tidy double arrival for mahoyo fans this November.
