DanganRonpa V3 receives its first trailer and more
After months of waiting following its Tokyo Game Show announcement, Spike Chunsoft has finally revealed the first footage for the sequel to DanganRonpa 2 (our pick as last year's Best Tangential game).
Translated out to be "New Danganronpa V3: Everyone’s New Semester of Killing", the story is set in the "Gifted Inmates Academy" which obviously sets a radical departure from the previous games that took place at a school and a resort beach. This will follow a completely new plotline with new characters, its only connection to the series being the mascot Monokuma. We can see at least see what the newest Naegi looks like - and he looks like a robot?
The game will still feature many of the same gameplay elements of exploration, investigation, and class trials. Take a look at the trailer below along with some important shots from the video in the following gallery.
New DanganRonpa V3 is set to be released next year for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita.
Also announced was a new anime, "DanganRonpa 3: The End of Hope's Peak Academy". Taking place timeline-wise directly following the first two games, it will be the final chapter in the story of Hope's Peak Academy, the school that surrounds the events of both entries.
