Gemdrops revealed details about Hololive Holo’s Hanafuda, including its release date, at the Hololive Super Expo 2025. The company will release the Vtuber-themed Hanafuda card game for the Switch, PS4, PS5, and PC on July 31, 2025.
This game will let people play the Japanese traditional Hanafuda card games with Hololive Vtubers as their avatars. While the regular rules like Koi-Koi, Oicho-Kabu, and Hana-Awase are available, Gemdrops will also add Holo-Awase as a brand-new Hololive-themed rule. Players can then use the points collected from the main gameplay mode to cook and design bento meal boxes.
The online mode for this game will support cross-platform matchmaking for up to four players. The game will support not only the Japanese and English language options, but also French, Italian, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, Indonesian, Korean, and Chinese (Traditional and Simplified).
Gemdrops has also uploaded a new trailer showcasing Hololive Holo’s Hanafuda on its YouTube channel:
As indicated by the above trailer, Nintendo Switch will be the primary platform for this game. It will be the only console to have physical releases. While the regular physical package will cost 5,280 yen (~$35.95), Gemdrops will also sell a limited edition package at 16,500 yen (~$112.45) that come with a set of Hanafuda cards actually made by Nintendo. The package will also include a soundtrack CD, an art book, a wrapping cloth, a mini folding screen, and a set of bento stickers.
Hololive Holo’s Hanafuda will be available worldwide for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and PC via Steam on July 31, 2025.
