The PlayStation 4 and PS Vita versions of Psycho-Pass: Mandatory Happiness, announced last week, will launch in Japan on March 24 for 7,800 yen, publisher 5pb. announced.
A 9,800 yen limited edition will include an art book and drama CD. The contents of the drama CD will differ based on which version of the game you purchase. On PlayStation 4, the limited edition is titled “Sado Ocean City Incident File XX: Dog Days,” and on PS Vita “Sado Ocean City Incident File XX: Cat Panic.”
Oprainfall sat down with Robbie and Alan from NISA to discuss their upcoming titles such as Pyscho-Pass and other future projects at GDC 2016.
Me too! :)
I find it interesting that in he interview they stated that Danganronpa and Zero Escape have had a big impact on visual novel popularity. I played Virtue's Last Reward and Danganronpa on a whim and they blew me away. Now I've gotten through Steins; Gate and am nearly finished with Code Realize, and I can finally see how good this genre can be if executed right.
I'm hoping Steins; Gate Zero, Root Letter and others come over to the west, and hopefully with a physical Vita edition. Handhelds are simply the best for visual novels. :)
In a rather surprising move, NIS America recently announced the western localization of the visual novel Psycho-Pass: Mandatory Happiness by 5pb. Today, you can see some gameplay thanks to a livestream by Sony.
The former Xbox One exclusive Psycho-Pass: Mandatory Happiness will finally release in Japan for PS4 and PS Vita on the 24th, and 5pb. released three new trailers to further introduce the game and its characters.
Didn't this used to be an Xbox One exclusive in Japan?
