HONEY∞PARADE GAMES announced Shinobi NEXUS -Senran Kagura- on July 31, a new entry in the Senran Kagura series for iOS, Android, and PC. The game is set three years after Shinobi Master Senran Kagura NEW LINK and follows new shinobi girls designed by series illustrator Minami Yaegashi. It combines a command RPG with ninja arts in what the developer calls hyper shinobi battles, rendered in cel-look 3D. The usual dress-up, communication, and diorama features return in a mashed-up form. Pre-registration opened the same day on the App Store and DMM GAMES, with Google Play scheduled to start soon. A DMM GAMES campaign offers a total of 300,000 yen worth of DMM points via lottery, tied to a click-based mini-game about training shinobi girls. The announcement came during the HONEY∞PARADE GAMES Special Program 2026! 81 Day Special! stream. The official website, X account, and YouTube channel are now live, and a title announcement PV has been released. The game is scheduled for distribution within 2026.
The game's story follows shinobi school girls from Hiritsu Snake Girl Academy, Kiritsu Tensho Academy, and Shijuku Moon Flash Girl Academy, set in a modern world where good and evil shinobi operate in the shadows. The narrative picks up after the establishment of the Shinobi Prohibition Code, which forbids conflict between the two sides, leaving the girls to face harsh fates while holding their own beliefs.
Alongside the announcement, a follow-and-repost campaign on the official X account (@shinovi_nexus) gives away a special booklet and 15 types of clear files to 30 winners, with applications open until August 7, 2026. The game will also appear at the HONEY∞PARADE GAMES booth at Comic Market 108, held August 15-16 at Tokyo International Exhibition Center, where visitors receive a BIG shopper bag featuring the main visual, and pre-registrants get the special booklet and a chance at limited clear files.
The press release lists supported OS as iOS, Android, and Windows 11 (64-bit), and credits character design to Minami Yaegashi. Copyright is held jointly by Marvelous Inc. and HONEY PARADE GAMES Inc.
