The history of Kemono Friends Pavilion, both in terms of pre-release promotional history and post-release update history.

Pre-Release History

The existence of an upcoming mobile game based on Kemono Friends was first revealed simultaneously with the reveal of Kemono Friends Alarm, both of which were developed by Bushiroad. Details from that point forth were scarce - the game had been targeted for Summer 2017, but the time had come and gone before Pavilion's name was even revealed to the public. However, this changed when the official Bushiroad website for Kemono Friends media was created on August 13th, 2017, giving both titles their name. This was followed by a Kemono Friends Hour stream on August 16th, which detailed Alarm and confirmed an appearance at the upcoming Tokyo Game Show in September.

On September 22nd, at TGS, the first Kemono Friends Pavilion trailer was revealed, and the official Twitter account was opened. The game's art style and a short segment of the game's theme song, Fure Fure Best Friends, which had not yet been officially unveiled, were also shown. However, despite this, the actual gameplay was at the time still unknown. The official Bushiroad website also updated, explaining that you could observe Friends, though the meaning of this was not explained until later on.

The game received little in the way of news until October 18th, when the website updated revealing more gameplay details - notably, that the game would be similar in gameplay to the popular Neko Atsume app. The PV shown at TGS was uploaded to YouTube, and pre-registration began. A pre-registration rewards campaign also began, with the following rewards for registration:

  • 10,000: Pikapika Crystal
  • 30,000: Pikapika Crystal
  • 50,000: Pikapika Crystal
  • 100,000: Golden Mouse Toy
  • 150,000: Pikapika Crystal

Within 24 hours, the first three goals were met, and the total number of pre-registrations was close to meeting the goal for the fourth reward, as well. On October 20th, two days after the beginning of the campagin, the Golden Mouse Toy goal was met. Not long after, the official Pavilion Twitter began to post weekly announcements regarding the gameplay, revealing the inclusion of new Friends simultaneously.
