ININ Games has made the decision to delay Cotton Fantasy in the west, meaning it will not launch in North America and Europe this winter. Instead, the company has provided a new spring release window.

Cotton Fantasy originally debuted in Japan back in December as Cotton Rock ‘n’ Roll.

Cotton Fantasy is a brand-new entry in the Cotton series that sees Cotton and Silk embark on another adventure, this time in high-definition graphics and with modernized gameplay, but true to its roots!
