Tribe Nine, a new mobile ARPG from Danganronpa creators Rui Komatsuzaki and Kazutaka Kodaka, is now open for pre-registration on Android and iOS! This exciting game, set in a dystopian Neo-Tokyo of 20XX, features teenagers competing in deadly Extreme Games orchestrated by the enigmatic Zero.
Pre-registering grants access to exclusive rewards, including a special Parallel Cypher/Y skin for Koishi Kohinata. The game blends the distinct art style of Komatsuzaki with the signature gameplay mechanics of Kodaka, seamlessly merging retro-inspired sprite-based exploration with full 3D battles. Players can experiment with equipment and utilize Tension Cards to create unique character builds.
Step Up to the Plate!
While Danganronpa's popularity may have waned, its innovative blend of art and murder-mystery storytelling once set it apart. Tribe Nine aims to capture that same spirit, boasting a unique aesthetic. However, the crowded mobile 3D turn-based battle market presents a significant challenge. The game will need a compelling hook to truly distinguish itself from the competition.
