Umamusume Pretty Derby Unveils Win Marilyn and New Training Scenario Arriving October 26

Cygames has revealed another substantial update for Umamusume: Pretty Derby, introducing a new character and an elaborate training scenario inspired by a fictional traditional festival. The announcements emerged from the October 24 PakaLive TV broadcast, with additional details published on October 25. The newly revealed character is Win Marilyn, an accomplished actress whose background includes childhood appearances in films and television dramas.

Her character profile describes a performer who has become particularly famous for portraying a rebellious schoolgirl who defeats opponents through racing. Japanese voice actress Chinatsu Hirose provides her voice. The more immediate gameplay addition is a new training scenario titled Tomo, History Unraveled: The Shikishun Grand Festival, scheduled for October 26 at noon Japanese time.

The storyline revolves around a special ceremony held once every twelve years, with selected horse girls preparing performances connected to the festival. A mysterious shrine maiden named Azuma plays an important role in the celebrations. The scenario introduces new training mechanics involving performances and teachings, encouraging players to develop different combinations of bonuses while improving their characters.

Preview coverage suggests that the new scenario raises several attribute limits and introduces additional strategic decisions concerning training partners and support cards. Cygames has also announced a daily free ten-pull recruitment campaign and new cards featuring Daiwa Scarlet, Azuma and Mayano Top Gun. These additions should provide established players with fresh progression opportunities while offering returning trainers a reason to revisit the game.

However, the announced content is associated with the Japanese service, and availability elsewhere should not be assumed. Apparently managing a stable of talented racing celebrities now requires expertise in athletics, acting, religious ceremonies and event planning.
