Vaka Game Magazine released DRAPLINE on September 24, 2026, ending an Early Access run on Steam that began June 30, 2025. The game costs 1680 yen including tax. Developer Kanau built it around a dragon girl named Kuu, whose default name can be changed, and who eats anything: meat, fish, rocks, iron, lava, mountains, ships, and villagers. The player raises Kuu over one in-game year to stop a calamity that arrives when that year ends. Each week is a turn in the raising phase, and food choices drive her stats. Kuu works for villagers to cover her food bills, and may ask to eat whatever she finds on the job. The official release adds a scenario called DRAGON'S DISCIPLINE and 25 TRUE endings, each with its own illustration. A soundtrack with 35 tracks is also on sale.
Battle is turn-based and split from the raising loop. Kuu uses normal attacks, defense, skills, and items, and can hold passives with no cap on how many. Skill combinations decide whether a run ends fast or grinds. The store page is priced at 1680 yen including tax, and bundles with other titles bring the cost down.
Bug fixes and performance adjustments to some skills arrived with the launch, alongside tweaks to skill effects and cooldowns. The soundtrack carries the 23 Early Access tracks plus 12 from DRAGON'S DISCIPLINE. Kanau marked the launch on social media with a post noting the one year and three month Early Access stretch and the new endings that finish Kuu's story.
