Okay, this one actually looks promising.

Shangri-La Frontier is finally getting its first game adaptation, and after seeing the latest footage, I can

already say one thing, it actually looks like the anime A Game Set Inside a Game

The game, called Shangri La Frontier:The Seven Colossi, was shown at Tokyo Game Show 2026, where fans also got the chance to play the first demo.

The game is being developed as a mobile tag battle RPG and features familiar characters, monsters, and locations from the series and the best part about it ,the new PV was produced in collaboration with the studio behind the anime C2C (curves to culture) , so the characters and action have that same anime style look instead of feeling like a completely different version of the franchise, the game also focuses on the Seven Colossi, with Wethermon the Tombguard already being shown in the new footage.


Why This Game Actually Makes Sense


Fans are usually a little careful when an anime gets adapted to a mobile game because sometimes the result feels more like a cash grab than an actual adaptation, but Shangri La Frontier makes sense as a game as the entire story is literally about playing a game.

So if the combat, exploration, and character interactions actually deliver, this could be one of those anime games that feels like a natural extension of the series.


For now, the game definitely looks promising, especially because it seems to be carrying over the visual style and world of the anime, but the real test will be the gameplay, if the combat, exploration and progression are actually fun, Shangri-La Frontier: The Seven Colossi could be exactly the kind of adaptation fans have been waiting for.


The game is being developed and published by Netmarble, with Netmarble Nexus handling development, the game is currently scheduled for a late 2026 release, although Netmarble has yet to announce an exact launch date. The game is planned for mobile, with Netmarble also listing a PC version in its 2026 lineup.


So, the anime gave us the game world. Now Netmarble is giving fans the chance to step inside it.

The only question left is whether The Seven Colossi can make playing Shangri-La Frontier
