The first game in the series, originally launched in the mid-&#8217;90s, has been remade\/re-released a ridiculous amount of times. There&#8217;s a sequel that isn&#8217;t a sequel but also is one (it&#8217;s literally called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digitallydownloaded.net\/2019\/11\/review-corpse-party-2-dead-patient-pc.html\">Corpse Party 2: Dead Patient<\/a>). But now, what you need to know is the Heavenly Host saga. It begins with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digitallydownloaded.net\/2016\/11\/review-corpse-party-nintendo-3ds.html\">Corpse Party<\/a>, continues with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digitallydownloaded.net\/2013\/01\/review-corpse-party-book-of-shadows.html\">Corpse Party: Book of Shadows<\/a>, and ended with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digitallydownloaded.net\/2015\/10\/review-corpse-party-blood-drive-sony.html\">Corpse Party: Blood Drive<\/a>. But then enters Corpse Party II: Darkness Distortion. In August 2020, the Mages. YouTube channel released a video of the Heavenly Host saga timeline, with the end stating &#8220;202X,&#8221; &#8220;Darkness Distortion,&#8221; and &#8220;More Corpse&#8230;&#8221; The game was officially announced last August, but there wasn&#8217;t a ton more to know until today past the possible Heavenly Host link until today. But good news! Corpse Party II: Darkness Distortion will be released later this year. Worldwide. Digitally <i>and<\/i> physically. And there&#8217;s a proper announcement trailer to boot!<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the kicker, though. Corpse Party II: Darkness Distortion returns to the franchise, yes&#8230; but with new characters, a new setting, and a new curse. It is specifically described as a standalone adventure. That Heavenly Host link may not be there after all. Or it could be. I don&#8217;t know what I know about that tidbit anymore.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/discord.gg\/w6xsCRaSNM\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.digitallydownloaded.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/DiscordBanner.jpg\" alt=\"DigitallyDownloaded.net's Discord banner.

Unfortunately, the legend know as Ayame&#8217;s Mercy is true and the girls trigger an old curse that sends them to a dark realm. They will have to avoid Ayame&#8217;s vengeful spirit and other horrors from the past while they search for a way to end the curse. Now. Forever.<\/p>\n<p>Players can explore the hospital halls in third-person and first-person viewpoints. The new third-person perspective compliments the visual novel-like storytelling, made more terrifying with updated visuals, gruesome descriptions, and spine-tingling audio. Corpse Party II: Darkness Distortion includes original Japanese voiceovers. There are six chapters with eight additional scenarios and plenty of Wrong Ends.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5ADu_6BW9yk?si=mmhEqCEZde6j9RC0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Physically, Corpse Party II: Darkness Distortion will be available for PlayStation (in North America) and Nintendo Switch (North America and Europe) as a standard or a limited edition. The limited edition (Ayame&#8217;s Mercy Edition) includes a copy of the game with a reversible cover sleeve, a blue LED candle styled after the in-game save points, a 64-page artbook filled with behind-the-scenes content, a spooky Ayame\u2019s Mercy lenticular art card, an evidence kit containing items pulled right out of the game, and an Amare Est Vivere Medical Kit metal outer case.<\/p>\n<p>Corpse Party II: Darkness Distortion is being co-developed by Team GrisGris and Mages., and published by Marvelous\/Marvelous Europe\/Xseed Games (depending on the location). It will be released worldwide for PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch &#8220;this fall,&#8221; which to me means Q4.
