See also {{Microtransactions}} and LootBoxes. The concepts between LootBoxes and gacha mechanics are functionally the same, but tend to have very different aesthetics and mechanics, and gacha tends to be less random and more forgiving than LootBoxes due to the inclusion of pity rolls. Due to the highly-controversial nature of this practice in video games, gacha mechanics are often brought into discussions regarding GamblersFallacy and UsefulNotes/RevenueEnhancingDevices.

Gacha is a monetization model for video games. The term is derived from gachapon (sometimes spelled "gashapon") vending machines: just like how these machines dispense a capsule containing a random toy when you put money into it (the term "gachapon" itself is an onomatopoeia for the sound of turning the crank on the machine, followed by the toy capsule dropping into the collection tray), a gacha game revolves around spending currency to obtain a randomized reward. The general idea behind the concept is that if you want a specific item, you'll have to keep playing (or paying) until you finally get the desired item after a certain amount of pulls.

Made a new TV Tropes page for the upcoming Devil May Cry Gacha Game / mobile game / spin-off. There's a lot that can already be troped from the trailers (or even the song)... Surprised that no one has done this yet.

The rate of gacha drops varies depending on a game's direction the developers had in mind. [[AntiFrustrationFeatures Some games offer pity mechanics]] where you're guaranteed an automatic item of a particular type after a certain amount of pulls, while some are not so forgiving and lack such a feature, encouraging players to keep pulling [[GameplayRandomization on a dice roll]].
