Spike Chunsoft has shared a new trailer for Shuten Order, in which you can learn more about the five gameplay systems that you will be able to experience.
EXNOA (who operate DMM Games) has teamed up with Tookyo Games for their multi-genre adventure game, which is led by Danganronpa series creator Kazutaka Kodaka.
“168 remaining until the end of the world.” Humanity approaches its end. In a world steeped in despair and chaos, a strange religious organisation called Shuten Order emerges that yearns for the end of humanity. Rapidly gaining followers, the group eventually forms a small nation-state called Shuten. Then one day, someone murders the Founder.
Following their death, the Founder is resurrected as Rei Shimobe (protagonist) through a miracle known as “the Power of God.” However, the resurrection is incomplete. Their memories are gone, and their life is limited to a mere four days.
Two self-proclaimed “angels,” God’s messengers, arrive and declare to the protagonist that to achieve true resurrection, they must overcome “God’s trial.” That challenges them to identify and kill their murderer within a high-stakes, four-day hunt for the truth.
Its gameplay lets you experience five different systems within a single game, which are:
- Ministry of Justice: Mystery Adventure
During investigations and interviews, use the “Snapping” feature to closely analyse suspicious statements and intriguing objects. Piece together evidence and make brilliant deductions to find the murderer. - Ministry of Health: Extreme Escape Adventure
A dark and unnerving 3D maze… Intellectual puzzles that obstruct exploration and kill indiscriminately if left unsolved… Immoral rules that pit participants against each other. Sometimes, fighting is needed, and other times, teamwork, in order to survive this death game and escape from the mysterious locked space. - Ministry of Science: Multi-Perspective Visual Novel
A visual novel adventure featuring differing points of view and differing agendas. Make use of the flowchart and survive to the end of a scenario filled with multiple chronologically branching routes. - Ministry of Education: Romance Adventure (?)
After being poisoned by Honoka Kokushikan, the protagonist Rei is led to a certain school and meets three girls calling themselves “Kokushikan”. To unmask the real Honoka—who has the antidote—increase each girl’s Affection and make a successful confession of love. - Ministry of Security: Stealth Action Horror
Freely explore a 3D map while evading and hiding from the wandering killer, Nephilim. Deal with numerous gimmicks with one goal in mind: survive.
Shuten Order will be released digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch worldwide on 5 September 2025.
