Today, the official Tencent Games Weibo posted a tweet saying, "A small announcement tomorrow," and unexpectedly, a series of Tencent’s platforms like WeGame and Yingyongbao also joined the excitement.
With all the major official accounts backing it, can Tencent really have something minor going on?
Obviously, something that prompts the entire Tencent family to release a joint teaser cannot be trivial. This news quickly sparked heated discussions among players. I frantically reviewed Tencent’s previous leaks and tweets and found that this “small matter” is very likely a mysterious new game called "Grain's Tiny Kingdom."
Previously, Tencent Games released a set of campus recruitment posters from its studios, featuring four game characters. Two have been confirmed as characters from "Light and Night Romance" and "Moonlight Blade," while the other two are yet unseen new faces. Considering the wording of this “small matter,” the first character, shown as a cute miniature figure, seems to perfectly fit the theme of “small.”

The clues don’t stop there. On foreign platforms, we found an account with an avatar highly resembling the pet next to the first character in the recruitment poster. Its username translates to "Grain's World" in Chinese. This account also posted confirming their participation at TGS 2025 (Tokyo Game Show 2025).

Following this lead, we searched multiple domestic social platforms and indeed found several official accounts certified as “Grain's Tiny Kingdom,” with avatars and names perfectly matching the overseas intel. By now, all signs point to one thing: the “small matter” Tencent mentioned is very likely the first official reveal of this new game.

According to current leaks, "Grain's Tiny Kingdom" features a warm and soothing Pixar picture book art style, including gameplay elements like home building, simulation management, character customization, and exploration and gathering. Judging by the name, players will likely enter a microscopic world of the “tiny kingdom,” experiencing a unique perspective filled with rich everyday life details.
