Manjuu and Yostar are developing Azur Promilia, an open-world RPG that completed its first closed beta test in July 2026. The studio is known for Azur Lane, and the new game blends action combat, creature collection, and life simulation.
Manjuu, the studio behind Azur Lane, is working with Yostar on Azur Promilia, an open-world RPG that entered its first closed beta test in July 2026. The CBT ran from July 2 to July 10 on PC and Android, with applications opening in June. The test gave players a first look at a game that combines action combat with creature collection and farming simulation, a deliberate expansion beyond the studio's ship-girl roots.
The preview published after the CBT highlights the game's unapologetic fan service, with character designs described as ranging from 'small' to 'large' muchi muchi. Combat is action-based with a monster companion system, parries, dodges, and a Stance Break mechanic. Players befriend creatures called Kibo through a Star Link mechanic that requires reducing enemy HP without defeating them. Over 180 Kibo were available in the CBT, and a Kibo Fight mode plays like a card game. The game also includes a farm building system, crafting, fishing, and a photo mode.
The full game is planned for Windows, iOS, and Android as a free-to-play title. The protagonist is a Star Visitor with amnesia, accompanied by a companion named Symphoria and a fairy named Lumie. The preview notes that the visual emphasis may distract from storytelling, but the game's character-driven appeal remains central to the developers' signature style.
