The Gods’ Game We Play anime adaptation was announced in January 2022. It will adapt a light novel series written by Kei Sazane and illustrated by Toiro Tomose. The series started as a web novel published on the Kakuyomu website in 2020, before being picked up by Media Factory in January 2021 and published under the MF Bunko J imprint.
Yen Press licensed the light novel in English. The first volume is set to release this November and plot is described as:
When the gods grow bored, they decide to spice up their eternal existence by challenging all takers in an ultimate battle of wits! Of course, these deities are capricious, unfair, and incomprehensible at the best of times, so winning is virtually impossible for a mere mortal. Even so, things are bound to get interesting when a former goddess and a genius human boy team up in a bid to win the game to end all games!
