Furthermore, the expansion enriches City Town with seven new shop establishments, enabling players to assist their Sanrio friends in developing the city through ventures like a plushie boutique, flourishing orchards, and an entertaining arcade. New visitors such as Pannya-chan, Buppyu-kun, Wanwa-chan, Sora-kun, and Nyako-chan will also arrive, and players will have the chance to prepare cozy apartments within the Rainbow Tower to welcome them. The developers have also teased a mysterious cameo appearance, adding an element of surprise for players.
