Wow, so here I am—scrolling through all this hype about Spike Chunsoft’s upcoming release, and suddenly, bam! They’ve gone and said it: “Shuten Order is coming digitally to the Switch.” Okay, that’s not verbatim, but you get the gist, right? And it’s gonna hit Europe and North America. Neat, huh?
Now, if you’ve been living under a rock (or just ignored all the game nerd chatter), here’s the scoop: EXNOA and Tookyo Games are in cahoots with the big brain behind Danganronpa, Kazutaka Kodaka. I mean, this thing? It’s like a casserole of gaming genres. We’re talking stealth, horror, visual novels—because why stick to one, right?
Picture this: Just 168 days till curtains for humanity. Yep, the end. And out of this chaos pops this quirky cult, Shuten Order. “What do they want?” you ask. Well, seems like they’re into apocalyptic endings. But wait! Their leader gets axed. Drama!
Next thing you know, he’s resurrected. Surprise! Meet Rei Shimobe—a guy with a Swiss cheese memory and a ticking clock. He’s got four days and a “God’s trial” to beat. Imagine a cosmic escape room where the ultimate goal is to whack the guy who whacked you. Talk about stakes!
So yeah, mark your calendars: September 5th, 2025. Switch, digital, everywhere.
Oh, and what about the characters? They’re outlandish. The Justice Minister, Kishiru? Totally random. Calls himself the “Ghost White Arbitrator”—not making this up. And, yeah, he’s into, well, perfectly legal drugs (allegedly).
Flip over to Health with Yugen. Nicknamed “Gatekeeper to the Afterlife,” kind of a big deal in the medical scene. Totally loves his sis. Not that it’s relevant, but hey, quirks.
Science geek Teko, aka “Prodigy”? Apparently a genius, but with the charm of, I dunno, a soggy toast? He’s making all the gadgets.
And Honoka, the “Conjurer of Words” in Education? Total mystery woman. Rumor mill says she’s eyeing the top spot. Spooky, right?
Security’s got Manji—what a firecracker. Picture every neighborhood watch captain combined, and you’ve got it. Peace is her thing, but cross her? Yikes.
Don’t even get me started on the angels, Himeru and Mikotoru. Their job? It’s like herding cats but with more existential dread. Himeru’s all go-go-go, totally salty about Shuten. Mikotoru? Chill vibe, until you ask hard questions. Then it’s dodge city.
So that’s the messy scoop. No clue why I even noticed half these things. Game sounds bonkers. Can’t wait. Or, maybe I should. Who knows?
