Dragami Games and NADA HOLDINGS have confirmed LOLLIPOP CHAINSAW 2 Back2Back, a new entry in the series set for PlayStation 5 in 2027 with JP UNIVERSE developing. The 2024 remaster Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP has sold over 400,000 copies worldwide as of the series' 14th anniversary on June 14, 2026.
The Lollipop Chainsaw series is moving forward on two tracks. On the sales side, Dragami Games announced that the 2024 remaster Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP has sold over 400,000 copies worldwide as of the series' 14th anniversary on June 14, 2026. A winning costume from the design contest, the Kogal Costume, will be distributed at the end of June. That milestone came two years after the remaster's release and shows continued content support for the title.
Three months later, on September 17, 2026, Dragami and Taiwan's NADA HOLDINGS confirmed the official title of the newest entry: LOLLIPOP CHAINSAW 2 Back2Back. It is scheduled for PlayStation 5 in 2027. Juliet returns in a new costume, and her boyfriend Nick is a severed head again. Development is handled by JP UNIVERSE, the studio Hajime Tabata founded in 2022 after directing Final Fantasy XV. Original scenario writer Masahiro Yuki and original character designer NekoshowguN are involved. Price and CERO rating are undecided.
The game is playable at the Sega Partners Corner inside the Sega/Atlus booth at Tokyo Game Show 2026, which runs at Makuhari Messe from September 17 to 21, with four demo stations. Stage events are set for September 18 at the Sega Event Stage and September 19 at the TGS2026 Main Stage. The pairing of the original writer and character designer with a director known for Final Fantasy XV indicates which parts of the 2012 game Dragami wants back. The two stories do not connect directly: one covers the remaster's sales and costume distribution, the other covers the sequel's title, platforms, and Tokyo Game Show presence.
