TOHO Games, Edelweiss, and G2 Studios have officially unveiled Sakuna: Hinuka Junreitan, a new free-to-play RPG that combines rice cultivation simulation with exploration-based combat. The game is set to launch on PC via Steam, iOS, and Android, though a release date has not yet been announced.
The game introduces a fresh storyline featuring returning protagonist Sakuna—now in a new outfit—and a new character named Hinuka, voiced by Machico. It is important to know that Hinuka Junreitan is not a direct sequel but a standalone entry in the expanding Sakuna universe.
As far we know, the game will be monetized through item-based microtransactions, and early visuals suggest a vibrant art style consistent with Edelweiss’s previous work. The game’s teaser site and official X account have gone live, offering fans a glimpse of character designs and thematic direction.
This announcement follows the reveal of Sakuna Chronicles: Kokorowa and the Gears of Creation, another spin-off currently in development in Japan. Together, these projects signal a broader franchise expansion, including anime adaptations and new media tie-ins. Further details were not announced. But it looks like a Japan first release.
