Shinobi Master Senran Kagura: New Link Gets Chinese Dress Waifus an Reopens PvP

Today Honey Parade Games released a new update to its free to play Senran Kagura game Shinobi Master Senran Kagura: New Link.

The update introduces a new gacha banner that gives you a chance to an SSR Yin Katsuragi and an SSR Yang Ayame. Both characters can be further awakened with medials into their UR forms sporting super cute costumes inspired by Chinese dresses.

You can see them in action in the videos at the bottom of the post.

On top of the new gacha, we also get the reopening of PvP, through which players can earn, among other things, a lovely SSR Bashou.

If you’re unfamiliar with Shinobi Master Senran Kagura: New Link, it’s a free to play version of the Senran Kagura series released in Japan at the end of 2017 for iOS and Android. A PC version is distributed by DMM, but it’s region locked and inaccessible from outside Japan without a VPN.

While the game is not available in English, it’s pretty accessible without knowing Japanese. It features some really lovely artwork so it may be worth trying out if you’re a fan.

If you’re interested in the Senran Kagura franchise as a whole, you can read my report on the special Senran Kagura cafe in Tokyo, and how producer Kenichiro Takaki is currently struggling due to a wave of censorship.
