You may have missed it amongst the bigger names at this morning’s Nintendo Direct, but amongst the Pikmin and Kirby and Zelda, there was a new game announced by the creators of the Danganronpa series.
Titled Master Detective Archives: RAIN CODE, the game definitely has some similarities to Danganronpa, since you’re trying to solve crimes, and you have to catch and destroy lies that are being literally thrown your way (judging from the trailer, at least). However, the setting differs a little, since you’re playing as an apprentice detective (and the spirit haunting him) exploring a city filled with unsolved mysteries.
If the creators’ past games are anything to go by, the game is sure to have some horrifying twist, but the trailer and screenshots below make Master Detective Archives: RAIN CODE look like a game to watch for when it arrives on the Switch next spring.
Spike Chunsoft, Inc. today announced Master Detective Archives: RAIN CODE is coming to Nintendo Switch™. The lucid-noir adventure game by the creators of the Danganronpa series is scheduled for a Spring 2023 release in North America and Europe.
