Get ready, basketball fans! The highly anticipated successor to *Blue Lock Rivals*, *Basketball Rivals*, based on the popular *Kuroko's Basketball* anime and manga, is almost here. Developed by Chrollo, this exciting new game boasts a newly released trailer, a confirmed release date, and a unique public playtest system. Here's everything you need to know about the *Basketball Rivals* release date.
Basketball Rivals Release Date Trailer
*Basketball Rivals* officially launches on **March 14, 2025, at 5 PM EST**. The long-awaited trailer is finally here (see below!), and we highly recommend checking the official event page for the latest updates and any potential last-minute schedule changes.
Basketball Rivals Release Trailer
The trailer is electrifying! It showcases the unique playing styles of iconic characters like Aomine Daiki's dazzling dribbling and scoring, and Shintaro Midorima's incredible long-range shots. While testers are already familiar with these styles, this is a great opportunity for newcomers to get a glimpse of the exciting abilities awaiting them.
Basketball Rivals Public Playtest – Prerelease
Keep an eye on the official Basketball Rivals game page and Discord server for details on the prerelease public playtest. Chrollo has a unique plan: the game will open for 30-minute public playtest periods each time the Release Event page hits 20,000 interested players (20k, 40k, 60k, and so on). Don't miss your chance to jump in before launch! However, please note that any Robux purchases during the playtest will not carry over to the official launch.
Official Basketball Rivals Trello
Currently, there's no official *Basketball Rivals* Trello board, but Chrollo has confirmed one will be available after launch. This Trello board will detail customization options and character styles, similar to the *Blue Lock Rivals* format, with each main character from *Kuroko's Basketball* having their own unique style.
