Sumo Dynasty
Launches 6 November 2026 · PC · Simulation, Sports, Strategy

Story
Sumo Dynasty puts you in charge of a sumo stable (heya) as its oyakata. You never step on the dohyo. You recruit the boys and men, decide how hard they train, manage the money, the staff and the stable's name, and try to raise a rikishi from the bottom of the banzuke to the white rope. It is the most in-depth sumo management game ever made: almost everything is modelled on how the real sport works, and the world keeps moving without you. Play it alone or in an online league with friends, in English or in full Japanese. Behind the professional world is a living amateur one: hundreds of middle-school, high-school, university and corporate wrestlers at their schools, growing year by year. Follow a young rikishi for years before he turns pro. Seven national championships, from the Junior High and the Inter-High to the Kokutai, the Student and the All-Japan, fought as knockout brackets Titles matter: amateur titles bring tsukedashi rights under each era's real rules Scouting and recruiting: hidden potential described only in words, foreign scholarship students, and rival stables chasing the same prospects Every man in all six divisions has an exact place on the banzuke.
