The official website for the anime portion of Cygames' Uma Musume Pretty Derby project revealed a teaser visual on Friday for the all-new animation that will be bundled with the television anime's fourth Blu-ray Disc release. The anime is titled "BNW no Chikai" (BNW's Oath). The new anime will have the same length as three episodes, and will center on Narita Taishin (voiced by Keiko Watanabe), Winning Ticket (Yui Watanabe), and Biwa Hayahide (Yui Kondou).
The November 14 release will also include an original prose story titled "Uma Hanashi" (Horse Talk) with a plot that is not portrayed in the television anime.
The 13-episode television anime premiered on April 1. Crunchyroll streamed the series as it aired in Japan.

Yousuke Kabashima (D.Gray-man Hallow, Lord Marksman and Vanadis) designed the characters and served as chief animation director. Masafumi Sugiura (aka Pierre Sugiura, Touken Ranbu: Hanamaru scripts) and Cygames' Akihiro Ishihara both wrote and oversaw the series scripts. UTAMARO movement composed the music at Lantis.
Cygames' Uma Musume Pretty Derby game is currently in development, with a planned release on iOS and Android this winter.
