Konami Wai Wai World Craft is a free-to-play social game creation network where anyone can build, share, and play games featuring Konami characters. A new concept trailer expands on the first reveal from Tokyo Game Show 2025, showing off the building tools and finished games running side by side. Think of it as a Roblox-style platform stocked with assets from Konami’s back catalog.
Quick answer: Wai Wai World Craft is a free-to-play, cross-platform game maker coming to PC via Steam, iOS, and Android. No release date has been announced.
Platforms, price, and release status
The project is built around cross-play, so games you create can be played from a PC, tablet, or phone. It is free to download, with revenue coming from in-game items and subscriptions rather than an upfront cost. A firm launch date has not been confirmed, and the title itself is still tentative.

You can find the official product page on Konami’s website, which mirrors the three pillars the game is designed around: Create, Play, and Connect.
How you build a game
There are two ways to start. You can pick an official game as a base and change it into something new, or you can build a game from scratch. Editing a base lets you change the rules, add items, and draw fresh maps, so a simple template can turn into a completely different experience.
For beginners, a tool called the Magic Pod handles the heavy lifting. You answer a few questions, and it automatically generates a playable game in about three minutes. From there you can keep tweaking the result rather than starting over.
The genres shown in action include side-scrollers, 3D platformers, third-person shooters, and battle royale, alongside broader adventure gameplay. The toolset covers customisable textures, colours, visual effects, hazards, traps, and power-ups.
Playable Actors and Konami characters
You control your games using “Actors,” the playable characters. Each Actor has different abilities, so the right pick depends on the game you are playing. You can customise an Actor by equipping accessories on the head, arms, and elsewhere, and you can change the size and position of those accessories to create your own look.
| Actor | Series |
|---|---|
| Primon | Primo |
| Sting | Pyo Pyo Kero |
| Bill Rizer | Contra |
| Simon Belmont | Castlevania |
| Amaterasu | Poyo Poyo Tank |
More Actors are set to be revealed, and additional Konami characters are expected to join over time. The lineup leans on classic franchises such as Contra and Castlevania, fitting the original Wai Wai World idea of many Konami characters sharing one game.
Sharing games and the Silver Points economy
Finished games can be published for other players, who can play them, leave scores, and add comments before passing them along. The community is built to reward creators, and there is a social hub where users share their work.
As you play, you collect Fave Birds that you can send to support Game Creators. Backing a creator earns you Silver Points based on that creator’s success. Silver Points are the in-game currency, and you also earn them by playing and creating.
| Reward | What it does |
|---|---|
| Fave Birds | Sent to support Game Creators you enjoy |
| Silver Points | Exchanged for accessories, items, and Actor color variations |
| Super Items | In-game boosts that restore HP or provide barriers |
Super Items can help you push through tough player-made games or gain an edge in player-versus-player matches. Silver Points also unlock new colour variations for your Actor, so playing and creating both feed back into how you customise your character.
The concept trailer is not a launch announcement, so there is still no confirmed date, price beyond free-to-play, or full character roster. What is clear is the shape of the platform: a Konami-flavoured game maker with an AI helper, cross-play across PC and mobile, and a creator-support loop meant to keep the community growing.
