EXNOA is a game publisher and developer that operates the DMM GAMES platform. It is currently preparing to launch Touken Ranbu Pazugiri, a puzzle RPG set in the Touken Ranbu ONLINE universe, scheduled for release within 2026 on PC, iOS, and Android.
EXNOA is a Japanese game company that runs the DMM GAMES platform. The most recent coverage centers on its upcoming puzzle RPG, Touken Ranbu Pazugiri, which opened pre-registration on July 12, 2026. The game is set in the Touken Ranbu ONLINE universe, where players take the role of an Emakimori and team up with sword warriors, called Touken Danshi, to protect the world of stories from the Time Retrograde Army. Puzzle mechanics involve connecting oni of the same color and cutting them. The game is free-to-play with in-app purchases and is scheduled for release within 2026 on PC, iOS, and Android.
Pre-registration spans the App Store, Google Play, and the official website, with milestone rewards including summon tickets and a guaranteed sword warrior summon ticket at 300,000 registrations. A campaign on X offers 5,000 winners a chance at up to 8,260 yen worth of Erableru Pay, and a repost campaign for the official PV gives 100 winners Erableru Pay and 100 winners hologram stickers of Mikazuki Munechika. A collaborative campaign with Touken Ranbu ONLINE is set to begin on July 22, 2026.
Separately, EXNOA is also involved in the broader mobile market. The August 2026 shutdown roundup, which lists seven titles ending service, includes Tenkei Paradox and Counter:Side, among others. The roundup does not name EXNOA as the operator of those titles, but it does note that the month is a mass exit point for the Japanese mobile market. The roundup also details refund procedures for paid currency.
