Umamusume: Kitasan Black release date

The global version of Umamusume: Pretty Derby is playing catch-up with the Japanese version, so the Umamusume and Support Card banners run on an accelerated schedule that makes it a bit difficult to keep up with. Planning your pulls carefully is therefore even more important than it usually is in a gacha game.

For players looking to build especially powerful teams and have prospering careers, one of the upcoming Umamusume banners will have a must-pull Support Card — Kitasan Black.

Kitasan Black is an amazing Support Card that will appear during Speed training during Career, when it’s part of your Support Deck for the run. What makes it so fantastic is that it appears very consistently throughout runs, triggering Friendship Training more often. So even if the card isn’t very different from others in terms of Training Ability, its consistency is a massive boon.

But that’s not all: Kitasan Black is incredibly versatile. Her skills are useful for any running style and distance and she brings three events to the table that can boost your trainee’s mood.

Kitasan Black will be available on the next Umamusume banner, which will be released on July 16, 2025, and run until August 1, 2025.

Whether you’re ambitious for PvP glory or simply need a comfort card you can use in every career run, Kitasan Black is a fantastic pick-up that can boost any Umamusume to victory. At the same time, it’s important to note that it’s not needed to clear any existing or future content, even if the hype for this Support Card seems to suggest otherwise, so no one should feel pressured to pull for it.
