The wait is over — hololive Dreams is live right now worldwide, and Singapore fans can start playing for free this very moment on iOS, Android, or PC via Steam. We covered the announcement back in early July when pre-registrations crossed 1.3 million, but now the game is actually in our hands. Here’s what you’re getting into.

Six Lanes, 150+ Songs: How the hololive Dreams Rhythm Game Works

At its core, hololive Dreams is a six-lane rhythm game where notes scroll downward in time with official hololive music. Three note types keep things varied: taps, held long notes, and directional flicks. What separates it from a straight music game is that your team composition actively affects your score — each hololive member you bring to a live carries skills that can boost score multipliers, protect your combo, or recover health when you miss. It’s closer to Gakuen Idolm@ster (which QualiArts also developed) than a simple tap-along.

The song library at launch includes more than 150 tracks — originals, unit songs, and covers — with official MV and live-concert footage playing in the background as you chart. Every featured member has at least two tracks attached to their name, and the roster covers hololive Japan, hololive EN, and hololive ID. (Note: hololive English -Justice-, DEV_IS FLOW GLOW, and HOLOSTARS are not in at launch.)

Build Your hololive Dream Park

Beyond the rhythm battles, hololive Dreams gives you an island — a literal dream park — to develop over time. The hololive Park hub connects everything: NPC interactions, story events, and member-themed facility zones. As you progress, you unlock the Megasphere, a 3D space with platforming and casino-style mini-games. Each section of the park ties back to a specific set of holomem, so completionists will have plenty of reasons to keep pulling the gacha.

The Gacha: Teams of Six, Skill Trees, No Dupes Wasted

Teams in hololive Dreams consist of a Leader plus five members, each card carrying a distinct skill set. The game is built around progression through individual skill trees, so duplicate pulls aren’t dead weight — they feed upgrade materials. Over 50 holomem are collectible at launch, each with multiple costume variants that carry different stat spreads and skill effects.

The in-game currency is Diamonds, earned through story content, event missions, and the login calendar. The game is free to play with optional in-app purchases for Diamond top-ups.

Launch Rewards — Claim Your Free Gacha Pulls Now

Pre-registration milestones mean there’s a stack of freebies waiting in your in-game mailbox when you first log in. Because the 1.3 million pre-registration mark was cleared before launch, you’re entitled to the cumulative rewards from every milestone up to that point — including 2,500 Diamonds (enough for roughly 10 gacha pulls), a guaranteed ★4+ gacha ticket, Live Stage Day/Night Memory cosmetics, 3 Music Discs, and Dot Sunglasses cosmetics for all 54 talents in the game. Claim them from the mailbox on first login before they expire.

A special hololive 9th anniversary event is also planned for around October 2026, with details set to be revealed through official broadcasts after launch — something to look forward to later in the year.

hololive Dreams Launches July 23 Worldwide — 1.3 Million Pre-Registered

July 6, 2026 kindaixin

What Is hololive Dreams?

Developed by QualiArts (a CyberAgent subsidiary, as reported by Famitsu (Japanese)) in partnership with COVER Corp. — the talent agency behind hololive — hololive Dreams (nicknamed “Horodori” among fans) is a theme park management game with rhythm RPG elements, featuring over 50 hololive female VTubers as playable characters and more than 150 songs from the hololive catalogue. You build and run your dream VTuber venue, completing story events and unlocking talents through gacha.

For Singapore fans, the game needs no introduction. hololive’s fanbase here is one of the most active in Southeast Asia, with community watch parties and fan-organised events running year-round. Having all of that in an official mobile game — one that has been in development for years — is a big deal.

July 23 Worldwide — iOS, Android, and Steam at the Same Time

The simultaneous global launch on July 23 means no regional delays and no geo-blocking — Singapore and the rest of Southeast Asia get it at the same time as Japan and everyone else. The Steam version launches alongside mobile, and cross-save lets you switch between your phone and PC seamlessly. The Steam Wishlist is now live for a launch-day reminder.

Note: the official FAQ says the simultaneous launch covers “most regions” (一部エリアを除く — excluding some areas). There is no indication Singapore or Southeast Asia is excluded, and no specific region has been named as an exception.

1.3 Million Pre-Registered — Rewards Stack Up

The milestone reward ladder has been ticking over steadily. At 1.3 million — the level hit today — every pre-registered player gets 3 gacha tickets on top of everything already unlocked: 10 gacha pulls’ worth of diamonds (at 500k), cosmetics for your theme park, guaranteed rarity pull tickets, and three Music Discs. The next milestone at 1.5 million adds a “Kawaii hairpin” collectible.

Pre-registration runs until July 22 — one day before launch — so there is time left to sign up and claim the full stack. A hashtag giveaway campaign is also running on the official hololive Dreams X account, with 150 winners receiving official game merchandise.

9th Anniversary Event Planned for October

QualiArts also confirmed that a special in-game event celebrating hololive’s 9th anniversary is planned for October 2026. Full details will be revealed after launch on July 23 via official programme broadcasts. Given how hololive’s annual anniversary celebrations tend to spiral into extended community events across Southeast Asia, expect this to be worth keeping an eye on.

Pre-register on the hololive Dreams official site, App Store, or Google Play. For more upcoming releases, check our game news section.

BanG Dream! YUME∞MITA Drops 2nd PV and Opening Theme — Premieres 2 July

June 22, 2026 Xian Skyrider

What Is BanG Dream! YUME∞MITA?

YUME∞MITA is the latest entry in the long-running BanG Dream! franchise — but it comes with a twist that makes it feel genuinely new. The anime centres on Mugendai Mewtype, a five-member virtual girl band made up entirely of VTubers. Each member has a real online presence and a dedicated fan base, and the series threads their digital personas into a full TV anime narrative.

The five members: Arale Nakamachi (vocals), Nonoka Miyanaga (lead guitar), Ritsu Minetsuki (rhythm guitar), Miyako Fuji (keyboard), and Yuno Sengoku (DJ and manipulator). If you already follow any of them on stream, you’ll be watching familiar faces in a completely new form.

Opening Theme: Our Survival, Written by Unison Square Garden

The PV2 and clean opening sequence reveal the series’ opening theme: “Kore wa Boku-tachi no Seizon no Arasuji” (Our Survival) performed by Mugendai Mewtype. The song was written by Tomoya Tabuchi, guitarist and vocalist of Unison Square Garden — a band whose anime credits include the Kekkai Sensen openings and the Boku dake ga Inai Machi ending theme. His involvement gives the track a sharp, indie-rock edge that sets YUME∞MITA apart from earlier BanG Dream! idol-pop entries.

Production — NICHICALINE and Director Tomomi Umetsu

The series is animated by NICHICALINE, a studio building its identity in music-forward anime. Tomomi Umetsu directs with Hiroshi Morita as assistant director, and Midori Gotō handles series composition alongside writers Akiko Waba, Yotsuji Haibuchi, and Hitomi Ogawa. Character designs are by Osamu Nobusawa and Mochipuyo.

The broadcast plan is ambitious: the first three episodes air simultaneously on 2 July at 23:00 JST on Tokyo MX, with additional broadcasts on BS NTV and Sun TV. Dropping three episodes on night one is an increasingly popular strategy for summer anime that wants to make an immediate impression — you get a complete story arc before the weekly wait begins.

Where to Watch in Singapore

Crunchyroll confirmed in January 2026 that BanG Dream! YUME∞MITA would be part of its 2026 anime lineup. Crunchyroll is available in Singapore, so the expectation is that Singapore fans will be able to stream from 2 July — though exact territory availability for SG had not been confirmed at the time of writing. Check Crunchyroll’s official announcements closer to 2 July for the final word.

Last words

Between the VTuber concept, the Unison Square Garden writing credit, and a three-episode opening night, YUME∞MITA is shaping up as one of Summer 2026’s more interesting sleeper picks. Singapore fans who already live in the VTuber world will have a head start on the lore — check out more Summer 2026 anime we’ve been tracking ahead of the July season kick-off.
