Sakura Wars, released in Japan as Shin Sakura Taisen, is a game developed and published by SEGA for the PS4 in 2019 in Japan and 2020 in the West. Set in an alternate 1940 Tokyo, it follows Seijuro Kamiyama, the new captain of the Imperial Combat Revue's Flower Division, a theatre troupe that also fights demons in steam-powered mechs.

It mixes 3D action battles with visual novel style story, choices in conversation and relationships with the troupe, and was a reboot of the series after more than a decade.

Two ports of a runtime that runs the PS4 game's own code are listed below: the original for Linux and a Windows build of it.
