Netmarble's Bloomwalker Ties Into Ni no Kuni Universe
Netmarble is folding its own original project into Level 5's Ni no Kuni brand rather than keeping it as a standalone title, which puts the franchise's console and PC future in the hands of the studio that previously only made the Cross Worlds smartphone game.
Reporting from 1 source: Anime News Network.
The Xbox Tokyo Game Show 2026 stream on Thursday showed a new trailer for Netmarble's Bloomwalker, confirming the game is part of the Ni no Kuni universe. Netmarble also said the title will launch for Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC via Steam. Netmarble Neo handles development, and the game is described as a cozy crafting adventure set in the fallen world of Luminoa.
The trailer shown during the Xbox Tokyo Game Show 2026 stream places the game in the fallen world of Luminoa, a land once shared by humans and spirits until a meteor crash pollutes the impact site beyond survival. Players take the role of a Bloomwalker, traveling with a moving house to cleanse the pollution and restore the land.
Netmarble Neo is developing. The title was previously announced as Project Bloomwalker in August 2025, and Netmarble's earlier Ni no Kuni work was the Cross Worlds smartphone game, which debuted in Japan in June 2021 and launched worldwide in May 2022.
