Mobcast Games has just announced that the Yu Yu Hakusho GENKAI Battle Spirits, its upcoming smartphone game based on the franchise, will launch on 19 May 2021. The game was originally scheduled for a release in 2019, but was suspended for undisclosed reasons. The game is finally ready for prime time, after having the project restart in November 2020 with the opening of pre-registrations. Accompanying the announcement is a tutorial video on how the battle mechanics work.

By signing up for the game via the official site or following the Official Twitter/ LINE, all players will be rewarded with 1,500 Rurimaru (the in-game currency) when the pre-registration reaches 500,000 users. For more details on the game, be sure to drop by the official website.

A synopsis for Yu Yu Hakusho for those are unfamiliar with it, via MAL:

One fateful day, Yuusuke Urameshi, a 14-year-old delinquent with a dim future, gets a miraculous chance to turn it all around when he throws himself in front of a moving car to save a young boy. His ultimate sacrifice is so out of character that the authorities of the spirit realm are not yet prepared to let him pass on. Koenma, heir to the throne of the spirit realm, offers Yuusuke an opportunity to regain his life through completion of a series of tasks. With the guidance of the death god Botan, he is to thwart evil presences on Earth as a Spirit Detective.
