《Corpse Party Book of Shadows》and《Corpse Party Blood Drive》are coming to PC, and the previously Japan-only《Corpse Party Sweet Sachiko’s Hysteric Birthday Bash》will be localized for PC alongside the upcoming《Corpse Party 2 Dead Patient》, publisher XSEED Games announced.
The PC version of《Corpse Party Book of Shadows》will launch on October 29, followed by《Corpse Party 2 Dead Patient》and《Corpse Party Sweet Sachiko’s Hysteric Birthday Bash》this winter, and《Corpse Party Blood Drive》shortly after. 《Corpse Party 2 Dead Patient》was previously planned for release this fall.
Here is an overview of each game：
《Corpse Party Book of Shadows》
Originally released for PSP in Japan in September 2001, followed by North America and Europe in January 2013. An iOS version was released in Japan December 2013.
《Corpse Party Book of Shadows》serves as the follow-up to 2011’s critically acclaimed, cult hit horror title, Corpse Party. A horrifying blend of adventure gameplay and visual-novel style presentation,《Corpse Party Book of Shadows》tells a series of short stories that help develop many of the characters introduced in the first game and even explores some hypothetical scenarios, answering those “What if they survived?” questions. The game was developed and published by 5pb in Japan, with supervision and input from original《Corpse Praty》developer Team GrisGris.
In《Corpse Party Book of Shadows》, players will be given an opportunity to change the fates of the game’s characters – for better, or, in classic Corpse Party fashion, for worse. Despite the apparent benefit of knowing the first game’s events, players should not expect to have all the answers, and at times will find themselves asking if the destiny of these unfortunate souls can truly be altered. Once again, “wrong ends” lurk around nearly every corner, amplified by binaural 3D audio effects when headphones are used and the chilling original Japanese voice track.
Gameplay in《Corpse Party Book of Shadows》takes players on a more personal tour of Heavenly Host, with a point-and-click, adventure-style first-person perspective. As the terror level rises for individual characters, the unique “darkening” system will slowly distort the game’s visuals and alter the students’ decision-making abilities. “Wrong ends”, while just as horrific, come with fewer consequences this time around, as players can save anywhere and fast-forward through events they’ve already seen in order to expedite the process of achieving each scenario’s true ending.
《Corpse Party Blood Drive》
Originally released for PS Vita in Japan in July 2014, followed by North America and Europe in October 2015. An iOS and Android version was released in North America and Japan in February 2017.
The final installment of the supernatural story that began with《Corpse Party》and continued in《Corpse Party Book of Shadows》,《Corpse Party Blood Drive》 ups the ante by allowing players to explore Heavenly Host Elementary in full 3D for the first time, with all of its formerly 2D environments meticulously recreated and greatly expanded. New gameplay systems provide more exciting interactions for players experiencing the gruesome finale to this tale of an inescapable, otherworldly school populated by vengeful spirits, including a dynamic lighting system aided by an in-game flashlight, talismans to protect the player characters from danger, deadly traps to disarm, cabinets to hide in, a stamina system that allows for limited dashing, and much more.
Furthermore, Blood Drive — once again presented with the original Japanese voiceovers for authenticity — features the return of previously offered gameplay elements such as binaural 3D audio for simulated surround sound and the screen-altering “Darkening” system, as well as bonus unlockables such as voice actor interviews, art, music, and more. Boasting 11 huge story chapters and 8 supplemental “Extra Chapters,” Corpse Party: Blood Drive caps off the Heavenly Host storyline in a big way, providing answers and shocking twists in equal measure.
《Corpse Party Sweet Sachiko’s Hysteric Birthday Bash》
Originally released for PSP in Japan in August 2012.
《Corpse Party Sweet Sachiko’s Hysteric Birthday Bash》is a romantic comedy spin-off of the Corpse Party series. In it, series antagonist Sachiko Shinozaki, who ruthlessly murdered countless students and superiors in previous games, throws herself a birthday party. Her guests include her previous victims, who are put through various activities for her amusement.
《Corpse Party 2 Dead Patient》
Originally released for PC in Japan in May 2013, followed by a powered-up version on the new “KENIX Engine NEUES” in October 2017.
【About】
The nightmare has returned five years after the events of Corpse Party: Blood Drive with an average junior high school student, Ayame Itou, suddenly finding her life turned upside down in the most unsettling way possible. Upon waking from a coma strapped to an operating table in a ransacked and seemingly abandoned hospital called “Amare Patriarcha Crucis,” Ayame realizes she’s locked in without any means of escape and with virtually no memories of her past. She is, however, not quite as alone as she first thought. Others occupy the mysterious hospital, but whether they are friend or foe remains to be discovered. Remains to be discovered…
《Corpse Party 2 Dead Patient》takes players on a dark and mysterious journey with Ayame and any other friendly faces she can find. Through the deserted halls of Amare Patriarcha Crucis, the party will solve inventory-based puzzles, collect medical charts of deceased patients, and avoid terrifying zombie-like pursuers in order to find much-needed answers, as well as—hopefully—a way out. Titled《Corpse Party 2 Dead Patient NEUES》in Japan,《Corpse Party 2 Dead Patient》is the definitive version of Dead Patient with updated graphics and additional scenarios.《Corpse Party 2 Dead Patient》exists as a standalone story within the《Corpse Party》series, allowing players to jump in regardless of their experience with past titles.
