Netmarble began pre-registrations on September 11 for Shangri-La Frontier: The Seven Strongest Species, a free-to-play game planned for release within the year on iOS, Android, and PC. Pre-registration is open only for the mobile version. The game is the IP's first game adaptation, with an original story involving original author Katarina and battles against the Strongest Species including Rikaon of the Night Raid and Weathermon the Gravekeeper.
Netmarble also detailed its Tokyo Game Show 2026 stage plans. The Netmarble booth will host events once each day from September 18 to 21 at Makuhari Messe, where the show runs September 17 to 21 with public days on the 19th through the 21st. Streamers including SHAKA will appear on a rotating daily basis to play the game live, and visitors who show the pre-registration screen receive an original drawstring bag and clear file.
Players who pre-register can get the character SSR [Rikaon's Curse] Sunraku plus gacha tickets and training materials, with rewards scaling by registrant count. Following the official X account adds items such as an Advanced Secret Text Box.
