Danganronpa: Another Episode Japanese release date set

Danganronpa: Another Episode will launch for PS Vita on September 25 for 7,020 yen in Japan, this week’s Famitsu reveals.

The game’s staff includes producer Yoshinori Terasawa, associate producer Yuuichiro Saito, director Shun Sasaki, and scenario writer Kazutaka Kodaka.

The story is set a year and a half after the events of despair, when Komaru manages to escape an attack from Monokuma.

Characters include Komaru Naegi (voiced by Aya Uchida) and Toko Fukawa (voiced by Miyuki Sawashiro). Players will control Komaru, who uses a megaphone-style hacking gun, but there are scenes where players will temporarily control Toko, as well. Other characters from Danganronpa 1 and 2 will also appear.

In “Towa City,” a group of Monokuma mask-wearing “Monokuma Kids” slaughter adults. They have five leaders who call themselves the “Warriors of Hope.” Their group consists of:

• Masaru Daimon (voiced by Megumi Han)
• Kotoko Utsugi (voiced by Kazusa Aranami)
• Jatarou Kemuri (voiced by Sumire Uesaka)
• Nagisa Shingetsu (voiced by Mariya Ise)
• Monica (voiced by Aya Hirano)

Each character specializes in a specific area. There’s the hero, soldier, monk, sage, and magician, respectively.

And one last tidbit, there seems to be about 10 different types of Monokuma.
