Izanagi Games has announced the latest Death Come True character for their upcoming FMV title. This is the third character announced with three more characters to be released in the upcoming weeks.
Death Come True was created by Danganronpa creator Kazutaka Kodaka.
Death Come True is a full-motion video (FMV) title. Players take control of the protagonist, Makoto Karaki, portrayed by Kanata Hongou. Karaki awakes in a hotel room where he learns on a news broadcast that he’s wanted for a series of murders. Karaki has lost his memory. It’s up to players to help Karaki recall his memories. The game has multiple decision paths and endings that are played out by the cast.
Hongou previously appeared as Makoto Naegi in the Danganronpa stage plays. He also performed the voice acting for Ryota Mitarai in the anime Danganronpa 3: The End of Hope’s Peak High School.
The second character is police investigator Akane Sachimura, who is played by Chiaki Kuriyama. She wakes up in a hotel bathtub with no memory of how she got there but has retained her memory before the event. Kuriyama is known for her roles in Kill Bill Volume 1 and Battle Royale.
The third character was revealed last week.
Nozomu Kuji, another police investigator, also works in Sachimura’s Special Investigation Division. Kuji works at his own pace but has solved many difficult cases. He’s also chasing Karaki, who is allegedly the serial killer.
Kuji is portrayed by Win Morisaki, a singer and actor. He previously appeared in Ready Player One.
The platforms the title will be released on has also been announced. Death Come True will be released on PC, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, iOS, and Android devices. These are only the planned platforms the game will be released on. It’s possible than an Xbox One announcement may come in the future or that the title may not be released on the planned platforms.
