Usahana, City Town Join Hello Kitty Island Adventure in 2.0 Update

Sanrio and Sunblink recently teased a new Hello Kitty Island Adventure update, and now Usahana and the City Town region are available alongside 2.0. The new region, characters, and activity are live, and a Jam Jamboree event is also temporarily live.

There isn’t a full list of 2.0 update additions in Hello Kitty Island Adventure, besides the confirmation of Usahana, City Town, and a custom Imagination Cafe for us to develop, but there are a number of changes tied to the new place. We can find new CDs, and it seems new recipes are also on the way. However, you do need to get access to the boat and repair it, then depart from the Resort Plaza, to reach the new place.

Here’s the new trailer. While it starts by showing City Town and Usahana in Hello Kitty Island Adventure, by the 10 second mark we get to see the Imagination Cafe we get to run. The UI there shows we can do things like order ingredients for things and open a cafe. It also seems like it will be possible to upgrade locations there. Sanrio characters we’ve met will show up as customers there.

There’s no video of the new event. The Jam Jamboree takes place on the main island. You play minigames with Cinnamoroll and My Melody to make jam. As usual, a store will appear. Going there with jars lets you get special cosmetics and furniture. That only runs until September 24, 2024.

Hello Kitty Island Adventure is available on Apple devices via Apple Arcade, the 2.0 update is live, and the Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, and PC versions launch in 2025.
