Marvelous Inc. has launched its new arcade rhythm game "WACCA" today, July 18, 2019 (Thursday), at amusement arcades and game centers nationwide.
WACCA" is a rhythm game that can be enjoyed by anyone, regardless of age or gender, by touching the "WACCA Console," Marvelous' proprietary 360-degree circular LED high-precision touch panel, in accordance with the instructions on the central screen.
The game is a new and innovative arcade game that allows players to feel a sense of exhilaration and immersion without worrying about their surroundings, thanks to the operation that requires a great deal of use of the body, such as "touching," "sliding," and "drawing circles" on the panel in time with the music, and a structure that envelops the player in a chassis.
The development of the product has been carried on under a strong partnership with the hard techno group "HARDCORE TANO*C," which is active in various fields both in Japan and abroad and has a strong presence and popularity in the world of music games, from the development planning stage, and the product development has been continued under a strong software partnership. The product includes a wide range of music genres, including 2.5D musicals, unique Marvelous music such as anime works, and famous JPOP songs.

To commemorate the full-scale operation in all regions of Japan, a campaign (period: July 18 to August 18, 2019) will be held, including a present of an original soundtrack CD.
More music will be added as needed after the full-scale launch.
