New Muv-Luv Game Project Mikhail Now Coming to PC & Switch With New Gameplay; Muv-Luv Verse Announced

Today Muv-Luv publisher aNCHOR had a few announcements to make during a livestream.

First of all, we learn that the upcoming free-to-play mecha action game Project Mikhail will require a bit longer in the oven. It has been delayed to August.

On top of that, we also get a platform change. It will now launch on PC via Steam and Nintendo Switch instead of PC and mobile as initially announced.

We then get to see a new gameplay trailer, which you can enjoy below.

More developers are being brought on board to work on the game, alongside the new producer Sho Hamanaga.

Hamanaga-san announced that the game will get Guild vs Guild PvP (in October) and showcased a new roadmap for development below.

We also get the announcement of Muv-Luv Verse, which will be entering beta in April, with the service beginning in May.

It’s a web service that will basically play the role of an online theme park about Muv-Luv, connecting players and fans.

There will also be an on online event during the Japanese Golden Week.

You can check out a concept image below alongside the new roadmap for the year the franchise.

Incidentally, we hear that Muv-Luv Resonative, Muv-Luv Integrate, and Project Immortal are still being worked on, with the latter still coming this year.
