Not too much is known about the new game other than the fact that it will be designed for multiple platforms. Netmarble has made games based on The Seven Deadly Sins manga before, with the latest being 2019’s The Seven Deadly Sins: Grand Cross, a mobile game that became available worldwide in March 2020.
The Seven Deadly Sins manga began in 2012 and lasted an incredible eight years before ending in March 2020. The series follows a band of knights in the land of Britannia, who are framed for trying to incite a coup, and must clear their names in order to restore their honor.
