Smilegate Megaport

Smilegate Megaport has two titles in the pipeline: MIRESI: The Invisible Future, which opened global pre-registration in June 2026 ahead of Anime Expo 2026, and Dead Account: Two Blue Flames, which was shown as a demo at Tokyo Game Show 2026. Neither has a completed release.

Synthesized from 2 Yomimono stories · updated Sep 20

Smilegate Megaport's two announced projects run on separate tracks. MIRESI: The Invisible Future opened global pre-registration on June 24, 2026, for iOS, Android, and PC, tied to the game's exhibition at Anime Expo 2026 in Los Angeles from July 2 to 5. The free-to-play time-travel RPG is developed by CONTROL9, a studio founded by key members of the Goddess of Victory: NIKKE and Seven Knights 2 teams, with NIKKE illustrator Hyolra as art director. The release date has not been announced.

Dead Account: Two Blue Flames surfaced later, with a demo shown at Tokyo Game Show 2026. The roguelite action RPG adapts Shizuku Watanabe's manga Dead Account, serialized on Magazine Pocket, and is built from the manga rather than the anime that aired from January to March 2026. Players lead up to five mediums in quarter-view battles, controlling the leader while the other four act automatically. A PC version is planned for STOVE, with an Android version also listed.

What connects the two is Smilegate's use of convention appearances to introduce its games to global audiences. Pre-registration for MIRESI commemorated its Anime Expo 2026 exhibition, with in-game items awarded at launch based on total registrants. Director Han Jae-yong said the pre-registration is meant to introduce the game to global users and create closer communication opportunities. The Dead Account demo served a similar purpose at Tokyo Game Show 2026. Neither title has a release date.
