Danganronpa 2×2 delayed into 2027

Unmark those calendars...

Danganronpa 2×2 has been delayed into 2027, Spike Chunsoft has today announced.

A statement from producer Shohei Sakakibara stated that while “development has been progressing toward a 2026 release,” it was decided to delay the game into “early 2027”.

“We are continuing to work to bring you the best possible experience,” Sakakibara added. “We sincerely appreciate your patience as development continues, and we look forward to sharing further updates with you soon.”

In addition to this delay, we also received more details of Danganronpa 2×2‘s new Slayhem mode.

Danganronpa 2×2 lets players experience Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair in two different modes,” the update continued.

“Players can choose between the revamped scenario in ‘Original’ mode, which retells the story from the 2012 release with enhanced visuals and updated presentation for modern game systems, and ‘Slayhem’ mode which features a new scenario based on Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair, but [with a] completely different storyline. Both options are available from the start of the game.”

Danganronpa 2×2 was announced back in 2025 and is now expected in early 2027 on Windows PC via Steam, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, PS5, Switch, and Switch 2.
