Wemade Connect To Develop Mobile Game Based On Kodansha’s IP “Hundred Note” In Japan
Collectible Idle RPG Genre
"Targeting Release in the Fourth Quarter of This Year"
Wemade Max announced on the 9th that Wemade Connect will begin developing a mobile game based on Kodansha's original intellectual property (IP) "Hundred Note" for the Japanese market.
"Hundred Note" is a mystery and detective IP released by Kodansha in May 2023. It has drawn attention for its unique universe, nearly 100 distinctive characters, and stunning artwork created with the participation of renowned illustrators. A web animation utilizing this IP has recorded a cumulative 1.6 billion views on YouTube, and the official YouTube channel has more than 1.6 million subscribers in total.
Wemade Connect will develop a mobile collectible idle role-playing game (RPG) using the "Hundred Note" IP. Set in a near-future city where public safety has deteriorated, the game will incorporate the original universe in which players solve cases together with various characters. It will be produced as a female-oriented subculture title that appropriately combines investigation, combat, and collection elements within the flow of the main story.
The company is targeting an official launch in the fourth quarter, first releasing the game in the Japanese market and then gradually expanding the service area to global markets, including Korea.
