Dead Account: Two Blue Flames is in pre-registration on iOS, Android, and PC via STOVE ahead of a release that is not tied to the anime's schedule. Developer IAN Games and Smilegate Megaport have tuned the roguelite around shorter runs and clearer tutorials after preliminary test feedback.
The Dead Account franchise currently stands on two tracks. The manga, serialized on Magazine Pocket, ran through a January to March 2026 anime adaptation. The game, Dead Account: Two Blue Flames, is being built from the manga rather than the anime, and its art is newly drawn. That separation means the game's release will not be tied to the anime's production schedule. Smilegate and Megaport opened the brand site on August 26, with the first promotional video and the official theme song by Haru Igarashi, who also worked on the anime's music.
The game is a team-based roguelite action RPG developed by IAN Games, with Smilegate Megaport handling it. Players form parties of up to five characters, each with psychic abilities called den'no, and battle ghost accounts, the revived SNS profiles of the dead. In quarter-view battles, the player controls only the leader while the other four act automatically. The adaptation treats the manga's phrase "exorcism is a team sport" as its design brief. Players walk around the town of Kusatsu, and kiting action is central to combat. Early stages run about 2 to 3 minutes.
At Tokyo Game Show 2026, director Kim Byung-gi said play sessions that ran long and weak tutorials were the main complaints from a preliminary test. The team added a shorter clear mode, double-speed combat, and more than double the number of game tips. Pre-registration is live on iOS, Android, and PC via STOVE, with the SSR character Kie Urushigawa, a profile frame, and a title for participants. Milestone rewards include 10 character recruitment tickets for every 100,000 registrants, up to 50 tickets at 500,000. The game was playable at Tokyo Game Show 2026 from September 19 to 21.
