In addition to these exciting new titles and Switch ports, Aksys has also revealed release dates and release windows for Virche Evermore: Epic Lycoris and Despera Drops.
Furthermore, some non-otome games were also announced during the conference. These games are as follows:
Ed-0: Zombie Standing (Physical only on PS5®/October 10)
Experience 1854 in fictional Edo-era Japan in this rogue-like action title! A mysterious black ship lands on the mainland, bringing not technology and trade but something much more dangerous. As the isolation ends, a new wave of zombies is created and the infestation is now rampant. Amidst the madness, a group of warriors with mysterious powers that can counter the zombie mutations, “Zom-beings” appear. The hunt is on as they fight to restore Edo to its pre-invasion state. But don’t be fooled, this won’t be an easy stroll through town; without leveling up the strength and power of your “Zombie-beings” and honing your fighting skills, you will face defeat and Edo will be lost forever.
Raging Bytes (Nintendo Switch/physical only on PS5/December 12)
Can you survive the raging bytes? Set in a zombie-ravaged America, Ben and Barbra must fight their way through waves of monsters while encountering other uninfected survivors along the way. With difficulty levels for all types of players, immerse yourself in this post-apocalyptic world in turn-based battles! This dramatic, pixelated story-driven RPG pays homage to classic 1970s horror films and was planned, written, and supervised by Jiro Ishii, who is credited with titles like 428: Shibuya Scramble.
Zero to Dance Hero (Nintendo Switch/November)
Learn to dance from scratch! Start from the basics with realistic dance lessons that include 30 popular hip-hop moves. By learning each dance in bite-sized steps, even beginners can easily learn to dance well! The more realistic Freestyle mode features six original choreographed dances in a variety of music genres.
