Good Smile Company just dropped Hatsune Miku Starry Party, a Nendoroid-style party action game for up to six players, heading to Switch 2 and PC via Steam in 2027 with full English, Japanese, Traditional Chinese, and Simplified Chinese support. Announced at Anime Expo with a teaser featuring the track "StargazeR" by Kots Beirne feat. Hatsune Miku, the game lets players control Vocaloid characters like Rin, Len, Luka, Meiko, and Kaito in various party mini-games. First console Vocaloid title since Project Mirai, and the Nendoroid aesthetic is peak merch-to-game pipeline.

Whales already circling the bait. Fans on X are posting the trailer and hyping the local multiplayer, while some note it's been forever since a proper console Miku experience. Good Smile and Crypton Future Media are clearly banking on the figurine crowd showing up in force. Switch 2 launch window hype plus Asian language support screams calculated global push.

Project Mirai fans eating good for once. No rhythm game this time, straight party chaos with tiny cute models smashing buttons together. Trailer dropped on the official channel and the replies are already full of "Miku Miku BEAAAAAM" energy. 2027 can't come fast enough for the gacha refugees looking for something offline.
