The official Twitter account for the Kaitō Tenshi Twin Angel game and anime franchise announced on Tuesday that its upcoming 10th anniversary Niconico broadcast will reveal new character visuals and cast for its upcoming game, as well as two other important announcements that are not related to the game. The livestream will begin on July 1 at 9:00 JST.
Voice actresses Tomoko Kaneda (Ririka Asterdale) and Mai Nakahara (Eris Firius) will appear on the program.
The staff first announced a third manga, second game, and new project for the franchise at Comiket in December 2014. The staff unveiled a teaser image for the new project with the silhouettes of two new characters at the time.

The franchise began with the first Kaitō Tenshi Twin Angel pachislo (slot machine for pachinko parlors) game in 2006. It then spawned a two-part original video anime (OVA) in 2008, followed by a television anime in 2011. A second original video anime project, Kaitō Tenshi Twin Angel: Kyun Kyun Tokimeki Paradise!!, shipped in January 2015. Crunchyroll streamed the television anime series under the title Twin Angel: Twinkle Paradise.
In addition to the line of pachislo games and the PSP adventure game in 2011, the franchise also inspired a PC visual novel in 2009.
