Debut on February 18, 2026, with their 1st Digital Single "META VERSE LOVE."
The real x virtual girls' unit Restria has decided to release their 2nd Digital Single "NEO CITY" on May 6, 2026.
This release includes two songs: the lead track "NEO CITY" and "Transcend."
While their 1st Digital Single "META VERSE LOVE." depicted Restria's worldview of descending from the virtual world to the real world with its heavy electronic sound and fast-paced beat, their new lead track "NEO CITY" fuses an impressive guitar sound with a digital sound design, creating an exhilarating rock sound. This song depicts Restria, having broken out of the virtual world, fighting against the "noise" lurking in people's hearts in the real world, further expanding Restria's worldview.
The included track "Transcend" is a slow-tempo song with a different feel from "NEO CITY." It is a song that gently embraces the hearts of those suffering in the real world, offering strength within its tenderness, presenting a new facet of Restria.
Through both songs, Restria's story of facing the "noise" in people's hearts while moving between virtual and real worlds is depicted more vividly.
To commemorate the release, in addition to online signing and talk events, their first mini-live performance in a free space is also decided for May 23, 2026 (Saturday) at a location in Saitama Prefecture. This will be Restria's first performance.
Furthermore, Restria includes Chinese member LIXI, and has already released Chinese versions of their songs. They are also proceeding with song releases in Chinese, including participating in lyric translations. Their activities on the Chinese video platform "bilibili" are also expanding, surpassing 1,000 subscribers within one month of opening.
Restria continues to broaden their activities, spanning across real and virtual worlds, as well as Japan and China.
Future developments are expected to attract significant attention.
