**Dolls Nest Manga** will come to life in a new medium, thanks to the work of two experienced names. The duo formed by artist Nykken and writer Satoshi Maejima will be responsible for adapting the popular action game *Dolls Nest* from Nitroplus. Scheduled to premiere in March 2026, the series titled *Dolls Nest: ORPHANS* will be published digitally on the Young Ace Up website from publisher Kadokawa. This move is a clear sign of the title’s success, which arrived on PC via Steam in April of last year and is now expanding its universe to Japanese comics, winning new fans.
The narrative promises to immerse readers in the same mysterious world of the game. The plot follows a mecha girl who explores a gigantic factory in the world of Hod, on a journey to uncover the truth behind everything. Thus, the adaptation faces the challenge of capturing the 3D action and investigation atmosphere that captivated players. Additionally, the credibility of the creators reinforces expectations, as Nykken recently completed the series *Toxic Super Beasts* on the same platform.
## The Behind-the-Scenes of the New Work
Nykken is no newcomer to Young Ace Up. The artist completed her previous work, *Toxic Super Beasts*, in October 2024, with the fourth and final physical volume released a month later. Meanwhile, on the other side of the world, Titan Manga continues publishing the English version of the work, with the third volume scheduled for April. This illustrator’s prior experience with the platform and genre is an excellent indicator of the quality of the new project. On the other hand, Satoshi Maejima brings his expertise in scripting to give depth to the story of the game’s characters.
The release of the *Dolls Nest manga* represents another front of expansion for the franchise, which began as a PC action game. The successful strategy of Nitroplus and Nitro Arts, which is common in the Japanese market, aims to create narrative ecosystems across multiple media. Therefore, Brazilian fans of anime, manga, and action games can keep an eye out, as stories with mechanical characters in post-apocalyptic settings always find a captive audience here. The question that remains is: will this adaptation manage to capture the intensity of the original game?
