Girls und Panzer: All-Star Tank Carnival will launch for PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC via Steam on March 25, 2027, in Japan, publisher D3 Publisher has announced. The PlayStation 5 and PC versions are newly confirmed, expanding the upcoming tank-combat action game’s availability beyond its previously announced Nintendo Switch 2 release.
The game will cost 6,980 yen for the standard edition, while a limited edition will be available for 14,080 yen. Physical copies are planned for PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch 2, although the Switch 2 release will use Nintendo’s game-key card format rather than a traditional cartridge containing the complete game data.
D3 Publisher also released a new trailer accompanying the Japanese release-date announcement. An international launch date and English-language support have not been confirmed.
Originally announced in October 2026, Girls und Panzer: All-Star Tank Carnival was initially scheduled for Nintendo Switch 2 sometime in 2027. The latest announcement establishes a specific Japanese release date while confirming two additional platforms, including the game’s first PC version.
Based on the Girls und Panzer anime franchise, All-Star Tank Carnival is being developed by staff who previously worked on Girls und Panzer: Dream Tank Match, which launched on PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch.
The new game retains the tank-focused action of its predecessor, allowing players to engage in battles that emphasize movement, positioning, and tactical targeting. Combat mechanics include drifting during close-range encounters, angling tank armor to improve protection, and targeting enemy tracks to restrict movement.
D3 Publisher has also highlighted improvements to the game’s graphics and presentation. Tank commanders will react during battles, while character conversations accompany the action.
Beyond combat, players can explore Oarai, the town featured in the anime series, alongside protagonist Miho Nishizumi. The explorable environment includes familiar locations from the franchise, with players able to travel through the town on foot or drive a Panzer IV tank.
Interacting with characters throughout Oarai unlocks quests featuring original story content and tank matches. These activities form part of the game’s progression, combining character interactions and exploration with its combat-focused gameplay.
Online multiplayer will support battles involving up to 10 players. Participants can select their preferred tanks and crew combinations before competing against other players in real-time matches. The game also includes a single-player experience.
The addition of Steam gives PC players access to a new entry in the Girls und Panzer game series, while the PlayStation 5 announcement provides another console option alongside Nintendo Switch 2.
For Japanese buyers, the physical-edition distinction is particularly relevant. Although both console versions will receive retail releases, the Nintendo Switch 2 game-key card requires players to download the game data rather than playing directly from a cartridge containing the full software.
D3 Publisher has not confirmed whether the March 25, 2027 launch will extend beyond Japan or whether the game will offer English text or voice options. Details about PC system requirements and the contents of the limited edition also remain unconfirmed.
