Death end re;Quest: Code Z, the latest title in the Death end re;Quest JRPG series, will get an English release on PS4, PS5, and Nintendo Switch in 2025.
Idea Factory International has released a teaser trailer and describes the premise of the COMPILE HEART-developed game as:
Step into a tale of parallel universes…
Iris was born in World DE-1, a world that mirrors Earth in the 2000s. With her birth, a series of tragic loops was set in motion, which were gradually unraveled by the efforts of Arata Mizunashi and his team.
With her goodwill restored, Iris created a copy of World DE-1 named World DE-1.5. Here, feuds gave way to friendship, each person a perfect cog in a perfect world. But a new crisis threatens the peace…
A mysterious man has entered the fray, and he leads a group of people who look identical to the world’s former heroes. Our new hero, Sayaka Hiwatari, confronts the rising chaos, where friends and foes seem impossible to distinguish.
And so the battle with another world enters a new phase…
Death end re;Quest: Code Z will have both physical and digital releases, as well as a limited edition. Character designer Kei Nanameda and scenario supervisor Makoto Kedouin reprised their roles for this title, which, unlike its predecessors, is a roguelike. The Japanese release will be on September 19, 2024.
The original Death end re;Quest game debuted as a PS4 title in Japan in 2018, with Switch and Steam ports arriving later. It featured RPG gameplay set within an in-universe game and visual novel sections set in the real world. Death end re;Quest 2 was released globally for PS4 and Steam in 2020 and received a Switch version in 2021.
