Spike Chunsoft has shared an introduction trailer for No Sleep For Kaname Date – From AI: The Somnium Files, which is now coming to both Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2.
Set a day after The New Cyclops Serial Killings were resolved, internet idol Iris Sagan (known as “A-set”) is abducted by a UFO and forced to participate in a perilous escape game called The Third Eye Game. In another part of the city, a mysterious device that resembles a coffin is discovered with a note attached that reads “Psync me.”
It is down to special agent Kaname Date to investigate, teaming up with the AI-Ball, Aiba, in his efforts to rescue Iris.
With Kazuya Yamada writing the scenario with Kotaro Uchikoshi overseeing as the series director, Yusuke Kozaki returns as character designer and Keisuke Ito continues as the music composer.
As with previous games, in the Investigation sections, you must examine crime scenes and listen to testimonies, whereas the Somnium segments will let you enter the dream worlds of suspects and key witnesses. The new Escape sections will challenge you to solve puzzles to break out of locked rooms. Moving between these three gameplay elements will reward you with the clues needed to solve the case.
No Sleep For Kaname Date – From AI: The Somnium Files will be released at retail and digitally on the Nintendo eShop for both Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 worldwide on 25 July 2025.
