Vampire

The Vampire series has two active threads: a new MMORPG from Netmarble launching in July 2026, and a limited Blu-ray release of the 1988-1989 OVA Vampire Princess Miyu with a blank cover. A separate animated adaptation of the Webtoon Vampire Family is in development at Warner Bros. Animation.

Netmarble's new MMORPG Vampire will launch in July 2026 for PC, iOS, and Android. The game comes from the team behind Lineage 2 Revolution. To build community buzz before launch, Netmarble is hosting a Vampire Dinner Party on June 20 in Tokyo, an offline event with dinner, influencer meet-and-greets, and a lottery. Applications for the 150 attendee slots close June 14.

Separately, MediaOCD and AnimEigo are releasing a restored HD Blu-ray of the 1988-1989 OVA Vampire Princess Miyu on or before September 8, 2026. The disc will ship with a completely blank cover and slipcase because the Japanese copyright system could not process packaging approval in over a year, and MediaOCD's license expires next year. The release includes the AnimEigo English dub, the Manga UK English dub, and original Japanese audio. Pre-orders are $24.95 through MediaOCD's website. MediaOCD founder Justin Sevakis said that if approvals ever come through for a real package, purchasers will be able to get one without rebuying the disc.

In a third development, Webtoon Entertainment and Warner Bros. Animation announced Vampire Family as one of four new animated projects in development, revealed during a panel at Web Summit Vancouver 2026. The project is part of a co-production deal that plans to adapt 10 Webtoon titles for global distribution.

MediaOCD to Release Vampire Princess Miyu Blu-ray With Blank Cover

MediaOCD and AnimEigo will release the restored HD Blu-ray of the 1988-1989 Vampire Princess Miyu OVA on or before September 8, 2026, but the disc will ship with a completely blank cover and slipcase. The company announced on May 29 that it had completed the HD remaster and sent packaging to Japan for approval over a year ago, but hit a procedural logjam in the Japanese copyright system that made no progress in over a year. MediaOCD founder Justin Sevakis stated that the company then discovered its license for the series expires next year, leaving no time for a proper release. To avoid letting the remaster go unreleased, MediaOCD decided to sell the Blu-ray exclusively through its own website with no artwork requiring approval. The release includes both the AnimEigo English dub and the Manga UK English dub, plus original Japanese audio. Pre-orders are open for $24.95. Sevakis added that if approvals ever come through for a real package, purchasers will be able to get one without rebuying the disc.
