Wait what, so this is what the teaser was about? Not even a game?
The preview website ("noise") still says todays date and "coming soon"...
If this was it, that is very disappointing honestly.

I was hoping that they’d eventually make a tv anime of the game’s story. It’s not very clear from the trailer what the movie will be about.

it's an original story and made to celebrate all Miku fans, Vocaloid fans, Project Diva and Project Sekai fans(●'◡'●)

"Tell me about yourself. Then maybe I'll understand the song." A new story about Hatsune Miku and the boys and girls begins.

Project Sekai: Colorful Stage! feat. Hatsune Miku, based on Crypton Future Media's vocaloid software, is a smartphone rhythm game developed by Colorful Palette and published by Sega. It is a spin-off of Sega's Hatsune Miku: Project Diva rhythm game series. The smartphone game was released in Japan for Android and iOS in September 2020, with the worldwide and other versions releasing in the following years.

Scooter Films produced a 10-episode mini-anime series titled Petit Seka that premiered between January and March 2022. P.A. Works also produced a 5-episode net anime titled Journey to Bloom between September and October 2023 to commemorate the game's third anniversary.

Synopsis
Set in modern day Shibuya, Project Sekai Movie: Kowareta Sekai to Utaenai Miku centers on Ichika Hoshino, a high school girl and street musician who encounters an unknown version of Hatsune Miku after hearing a Miku song that she'd never heard before in a CD store. Ichika learns that this version of Miku is having trouble reaching people with her songs, so together they team up to try to touch the hearts of their audience through music.

I know Project Sekai was popular...but enough to make a movie just speaks volumes.

yes yes ^-^ Project Sekai just recently reached 39 million downloads♪(´▽｀)

That's cool. when it comes out I would like a physical media of it.

I think after a few months, they'll release a nice blu-ray of the movie, maybe also a limited editionヾ(＠⌒ー⌒＠)ノ

 

[Palamon]

A movie huh.... I'm slightly disappointed bc kt probably won't get licenced

 

[Rylitah]

Actually, a global release was already confirmed in yesterday's Colorful Corner (periodic livestreams about the global version of the game). No date, just "coming soon," but the trailer is officially subtitled.

(timestamped, but if it doesn't work it starts at 35:50)

in the latest Project Sekai live talk Question Box, the developers have talked a bit about the possible PC version: it's actually the first time they really talk about it, and they said that a Project Sekai version for PC would be difficult for various things, mostly the cheats/anti-cheats system, the updates of the game and the keyboard for playing. They decided to not make a PC version about one year ago.
in my opinion, it's nice they talked about it, and this is not completely to rule-out a porting of Project Sekai for the future. For example, I understand a live updated version is difficult and it could delay the development of new updates, but I can imagine a stand-alone made version for the current console systems (Switch, PS4 and maybe Switch 2?), a version that is not being updated but is based on the previous versions of the game, let's say the first 2 years. That could work
the producer also said that "about one year ago, I think, that when the topic came up, I decided it would be better if I left it alone, and decided not to do it. But for now, I'll just say i'm going to put it off for a while."
here is the video (around the 25 minutes time):

I really hope they make some sort of console version. I don't spend a lot of time on mobile games so having a version on console where I can dedicate some time would make me like Project Sekai more.
