Ki-Gou Keikaku Strategy RPG Announced for PC and Mobile by Kantai Collection Developer C2Architecture
On April 1, 2026, C2Architecture, the developer known for Kantai Collection, officially announced a new historical science-fiction strategy RPG titled Ki-Gou Keikaku.
The upcoming title is a fully 3D game set within an alternate Showa era and will be available for both PC and mobile platforms.
According to the announcement, the game features innovative systems that place a high priority on communication and will include mechs as a central element.
The main character designs for the project have been produced by the artists Konishi and Shibafu.
C2Architecture revealed that Ki-Gou Keikaku was originally in development before the release of Kantai Collection, but was paused due to that game’s massive and unexpected success.
Development has progressed steadily over the last several years, allowing the project to expand into a large-scale production.
The announcement coincided with several April Fools’ Day events across the gaming industry on April 1, 2026, though the developer presented this as a significant upcoming project.
The studio’s official website also indicates that other new intellectual property projects are currently in progress beyond their established franchises.
These future endeavors may encompass non-game media, such as the theatrical production Kantai Collection Operation Rei-Go 1944 scheduled for spring 2025.
