The game has full voice acting except for the protagonist, with Hina Yumiya as Cocoro and a cast including Hikaru Tohno, Yasuaki Takumi, Riona Imaizumi, Maaya Uchida, and Shuta Morishima.
The creative team ties COCORO to Front Wing's established visual novel pedigree. Asta Konno, known for ATRI -My Dear Moments-, handles planning and scenario. Akio Watanabe, of the Grisaia series, is the character designer. Fuminori Matsumoto composes the music. The final trailer, released August 14, 2026, previewed key scenes and the emotional core of the heroine's promise to meet her fiancé, ahead of the late August launch.
