Popular Board Game ‘Sakura Furu Yo ni Kettou o’ VR Adaptation Officially Supervised! Development Support Crowdfunding Successfully Raises Over 22 Million Yen

About “Sakura Furu Yo ni Kettou o”

“Sakura Furu Yo ni Kettou o” is a “Build-in-Front-of-You” duel board game developed by BakaFire Party (Representative: BakaFire).

In a world where special power-possessing cherry blossoms called Kamizakura host beings known as ‘Megami’, players duel by borrowing the power of these Megami.

Before the game begins, players select two Megami from a diverse roster and receive their assigned cards. After confirming the opponent’s chosen Megami, players construct their deck from the received cards. This “Build-in-Front-of-You” system is a significant feature. After both players construct their decks, victory is decided through “Ouka Kettou,” which incorporates concepts like range and defense similar to fighting games.

Since the release of the first title in the series in 2016, new series titles have been continuously released. During this time, large-scale tournament events have been regularly held, and the series has been supported by many fans for a long period.

“VR Gun & Gun,” “VR Blood Recall,” and “VR Sakura Furu Yo ni Kettou o,” born from REARV’s projects, have fostered user-driven communities. These communities collectively number over 4,000 members, engaging in active daily interaction and gameplay, including beginner workshops and tournament organization.

Notably, “VR Gun & Gun” has attracted over 300,000 cumulative visitors, indicating that VR analog games are evolving into a significant movement.

This crowdfunding campaign supports the “VR Sakura Furu Yo ni Kettou o” world, currently in open beta testing, for its long-term sustainability.

REARV’s high-quality VR worlds offer an accessible platform for anyone to experience the original game’s appeal and mechanics directly.

The advantages of playing analog games in VR include the ability for friends in remote locations to play together in the same space, the elimination of setup and cleanup hassles, and the revitalization of the entire community due to increased active users on weekday evenings.

Furthermore, VR-specific expressions, such as enjoying VR spaces and avatar costumes, expand the possibilities of IP content beyond just game-playing.

This project aims to connect analog games to the “future of analog games” as sustainable content by expanding their potential as IP content, not just as games.
