The price is 750 yen (tax included), or $4.99. Players roll sweets characters that carry heavy weapons, defeat enemies, collect coins and open present boxes to add allies, and build a parade that competes on the battlefield. The roster of sweets includes a waffle with a machine gun, a baumkuchen that fires a laser, a donut that bombs from the sky, a roll cake modeled on the Panjandrum, and a churros that pulls in coins. Enemies include a pencil-sharpener-shaped robot, a toaster on wheels, and a bathtub with a shower. Online co-op supports up to 3 players, and there is also 2-player offline co-op. The game takes part in Steam Next Fest from October 20 to 27, 2026, with a demo covering 4 stages and a play time of about 10 minutes or more. A 15 percent launch sale is planned for two weeks.","whyItMatters":"The release date comes after the project was announced around 2025 under the title Magical Chocolate Night, so the final name and date close out a year of retitling.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eBrowserland is a solo developer, and Chocolate Parade is its second title after Tactics Greed, a roguelike strategy game with action elements released in 2024.
