A Bloomwalker trailer shown during Thursday’s Xbox Tokyo Game Show 2026 stream revealed its Ni no Kuni connection. Players will travel in a moving house to restore polluted land.

Thursday’s “XBox Tokyo Game Show 2026” stream unveiled a Bloomwalker trailer confirming that Netmarble’s game belongs to the Ni no Kuni universe.

Netmarble also announced these platforms:

  • Xbox Series X|S
  • PlayStation 5
  • Nintendo Switch
  • Nintendo Switch 2
  • PC via Steam

The company initially revealed the project as “Project Bloomwalker” in August 2025. Netmarble Neo is developing it.

Netmarble calls Bloomwalker a “cozy crafting adventure” set in the fallen world of Luminoa. Humans and mysterious spirits once shared this beautiful land.

A mysterious meteor crashes into the world, contaminating its impact site so severely that nothing can live there. As the world struggles, Bloomwalkers emerge with powers that can revive life and mend the damaged earth.

Players become a Bloomwalker and explore in their own distinctive moving house. They work to clear polluted landscapes and bring nature back into balance.

The moving house system lets players take their home across the land as they remove the spreading pollution.

Netmarble previously developed the smartphone game Ni no Kuni: Cross Worlds. It arrived in Japan in June 2021 before launching worldwide in May 2022.

The franchise’s game release history includes:

  • Level 5’s fantasy RPG Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch debuted on PlayStation 3 in Japan in 2011. It followed 2010’s Nintendo DS game Ni no Kuni: Shikkoku no Madōshi and a game for Japanese phones.
  • Namco Bandai Games brought Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch outside Japan in 2013. The RPG includes cutscenes created by Studio Ghibli.
  • A remastered Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch arrived on PlayStation 4 and PC in September 2019. A Switch version of the original game launched that same day.
  • Level 5 released Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom worldwide for PS4 and PC in March 2018. Switch followed in September 2021, with Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S versions arriving in March 2023.

The franchise also inspired an anime film, which opened in Japanese theaters in August 2019.
