Marvelous Europe and Edelweiss have marked six years since the release of Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin with a new trailer for the upcoming spin-off Sakuna Chronicles: Kokorowa and the Gears of Creation, giving a closer look at the story behind the game. First announced in 2024 as the opening entry in an expanding franchise built on the indie action-platformer and rice-farming sim, the spin-off stars Princess Kokorowa, the high-ranking goddess who presides over wheels and inventions, and the trailer touches on her past as well as the trials ahead for her and the other residents of the Lofty Realm. Alongside a cast of original characters, it also features some returning faces, including Kokorowa’s closest friend, Sakuna.
