BTS World was released June 26 and is a visual novel styled video game. In the game, players get the chance to be the group's manager. The story takes place before the band makes its debut, and the ultimate goal is to ensure that BTS become the superstars that they are today. In the game, players get to undergo different missions where they can choose certain BTS member cards in order to complete the mission and move forward through the game. By being able to collect and upgrade the cards, players can open up more stories along the way. Players are also able to interact with the band virtually through a 1:1 interactive system which include voice and text messaging. There is even a chance to video call with the BTS members.
