The simultaneous digital release, merchandise launch, and in-game integration across platforms show Re:AcT's strategy of maximizing a single song's reach through cross-media touchpoints.
Reporting from 1 sources: PANORA.
Virtual artist Risa Makou of Re:AcT released the new song 'Yoake no Machi' on June 10. The track blends Showa-era kayokyoku with neo-city pop, produced by kova. Simultaneously, merchandise including a music keyholder went on sale, and the song debuted as in-game BGM for the title 'Stogra,' played during a live scene of character Rui Majima.
The song adopts a sound design that fuses the emotion of Showa-era kayokyoku with the sophistication of neo-city pop. Lyrics and composition were handled by kova, and the piece is described as maximizing the depth and decadent allure of Risa Makou's voice. Merchandise sales began on BOOTH, with a music keyholder priced at 2000 yen; set purchasers receive two types of PC wallpaper as digital bonuses. The order period runs from June 10 to June 24, 2026.
The collaboration with 'Stogra' allows the song to be used as BGM in the game. It was first performed in-game during a live scene of the character Rui Majima late on June 10. Risa Makou, a genius demon belonging to music VTuber agency Re:AcT, also plays the character Rui Majima in Stogra.
