Idea Factory International has announced that it will be publishing 9 R.I.P. sequel, a sequel to the otome visual novel 9 R.I.P., digitally and physically for Nintendo Switch later this year. The game features nine full routes, including direct continuations of the Heavenly and Godly Endings from 9 R.I.P. Players can unlock bonus content by navigating through the story. Today’s announcement trailer showcases all nine love interests from the first game, while also previewing new sub-characters.
Here is a description of the game, via Idea Factory International:
Following the endings of 9 R.I.P., Misa Isshiki finds herself at a crossroads with navigating romantic life and the consequences of her actions during her second year of high school. New challenges await depending on the route taken…
Whether it’s grappling with the fallout of her death or navigating a relationship with a supernatural being, Misa must come to terms with her decisions to move forward.
Will she continue along the same path, or take another route entirely?
Here are the key features of the game, also via IFI:
- Back from the Dead — 9 R.I.P. has returned from the grave with a sequel! With 9 full routes of love interests from the previous game, there’s sure to be a man, demon, or spirit for everyone’s tastes.
- We’re in Heaven — Heavenly Routes are back with a more direct sequel to the previous Heavenly Endings. These stories feature new obstacles to overcome. Make your choices carefully, or they will have consequences for everyone around you… Can you and your love prevail through the challenges of life (and possibly death)?
- Sugar, Spice, and Everything Nice — Need something more on the romantic side to sweep you off your feet? Godly Routes suit fans who crave a happy and sweet ending, serving as epilogues for each Love Interest’s Godly Ending in the first game.
