The developers began streaming an English version of the game's opening comic video in August 2017.
Atelier Mimina is developing the game using Unreal Engine 4, and Epic Games awarded the developers an Unreal Dev Grant last year. Sony Music Entertainment's publishing label UNTIES will publish the game.
