Sanrio plans to launch its first smartphone-exclusive rhythm game, Sanrio Kawaii Me Live!, in January 2027. The game will feature a variety of Sanrio characters such as Hello Kitty, My Melody, Pompompurin, Cinnamoroll, Kuromi, and many more. Players can engage in two styles of rhythm play: one that involves tapping circles and the other keeping a finger on a horizontal bar.
The game is free to play and comes with a selection of seven songs featuring Sanrio characters. Players can unlock additional songs, outfits, and musical equipment for their characters as they progress. A live release event will be held in Yokohama on January 14, 2027, showcasing performances by the featured artists and characters.
Pre-registration for the game is already underway, with special in-game items available for those who pre-register, starting with 50,000 people receiving an energy-boosting Cosmo Soda item.
