This game is a Switch port of the mobile rhythm game BanG Dream! Girls Band Party! currently available on Android and iOS devices. The title is known for its character and background customization systems. It also features storylines delivered in visual novel style and Live2D-animated characters.

The Switch version will include almost all character cards from the first season. However, it will not include events from collaborations with other franchises. The eShop page currently indicates that this title will only support the Japanese language.

Bushiroad will release the full version of BanG Dream! Girls Band Party! for Nintendo Switch on September 16, 2021. The company plans to take down the demo version once the full game is available.
