YOASOBI has decided to release a new song, “PLAYERS,” as a collaboration song with PlayStation®︎’s 30th anniversary project, “Project: MEMORY CARD,” on Friday, March 21st. To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the release of the original PlayStation®, this project is developed with the concept of “saving PlayStation’s memories into YOASOBI songs.” This is a newly written song based on the “Episode of a Game You Want to Delete Your Memories and Play Again” that was recruited by users. The song opens with catchy chants, and the repeated chorus phrases create a sense of excitement. The experiences and words taught by the protagonists and stories he encountered in the game world will push you into your real life and raise your expectations for the future – this song is filled with a positive message. The special site for the “PLAYERS” was also released today, featuring “episodes of games that you want to erase your memories and play again,” which were recruited from users who will be the original song. For more information, please check out the official YOASOBI homepage.
The jacket design was produced by Tsuribu Tokyo, a production group that features chaotic and sophisticated visuals, with a style that has a sense of sadness and a touching margin that brings back humanity, and was released today. The design is based on 3D characters, and the world view is linked to future Music Video releases, so please look forward to it. In addition, a special PlayStation 30th anniversary commercial using this song is scheduled to be released from March 21st. Please look forward to this as well.
