Sakamoto Days Game Teased for Japan

Get ready for the upcoming Sakamoto Days anime and its accompanying mobile game! This highly anticipated anime, debuting soon on Netflix, will also launch a mobile game, Sakamoto Days Dangerous Puzzle, around the same time, as reported by Crunchyroll.

For the uninitiated, Sakamoto Days follows Sakamoto, a retired assassin who traded a life of crime for a family and a mundane convenience store job. However, his past catches up, and alongside his partner Shin, he proves his skills haven't dulled.

The simultaneous release of the anime and mobile game is noteworthy. Sakamoto Days has already cultivated a dedicated fanbase, making this mobile game launch particularly intriguing. The game cleverly combines popular mobile game elements like character collection and battling with the more accessible match-three puzzle mechanics.
