NIS America began streaming the launch trailer for its Danganronpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls PlayStation Vita game on Tuesday. The game ships on Tuesday in North America and on Friday in Europe.
NIS America describes the story on the PlayStation Blog:
With the horrors from The Biggest, Most Awful, Most Tragic Event in Human History that surrounded Hope's Peak Academy still overshadowing mankind, the war of despair rages on. Upon discovering Komaru, one of the playable heroines of Danganronpa Another Episode, Byakuya of Future Foundation returns from the first Danganronpa game to save her from the attacking Monokumas. Soon after equipping her with a Hacking Gun to destroy the Monokumas, she is caught by the Warriors of Hope, a band of children who rule over Towa City.
Zettai Zetsubō Shōjo Danganronpa: Another Episode shipped in Japan in September. The prequel spinoff stars Komaru Naegi, the younger sister of the first game's protagonist Makoto, and Toko Fukawa. Hajime Tōya (Danganronpa Kibō no Gakuen to Zetsubō no Kōkōsei manga) launched a manga adaptation on February 20 on Kadokawa's web manga site Famitsu Comic Clear.
NIS America released the PlayStation Vita ports of the first and second Danganronpa game in North America and Europe last year under the names Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc and Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair. Funimation streamed the 2013 anime adaptation as it aired and plans to release the series on home video.
