Last year Spike Chunsoft announced a remaster of divisive visual novel sequel Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair to be called Danganronpa 2x2. Intriguingly, said remaster will also include an alternate storyline, so if you don't want to suffer through the original story again you can experience a different version of events playing out on its murder island deathtrap.
Originally scheduled for a 2026 release, Danganronpa 2x2 has now been shifted to early 2027, Spike Chunsoft says in a recent announcement. Said announcement does finally offer some more details on what will be included in the remaster, however. The cast are getting new character portraits, and that lame sidescrolling world map is being replaced with a 3D map, with optional fast travel.
