Publisher Entergram and developer Ryukishi07 have announced Kaleidoscope of Phantom Prison II, their girls’ mental suspense death game sequel.

Kaleidoscope of Phantom Prison II is in development for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 with a release set for February 14th, 2024 in Japan.

Here’s a rundown on the game, plus its first screenshots:

Let’s have a small, small reunion, just the four of us.

Lemon, Cyan, Murasaki, and Kurone. When we were in junior high school, we were a group of four “eccentric” good friends.

Somewhere along the way, they drifted apart and went on to live their own high school lives. During the summer vacation of their junior year in high school, they contacted me for the first time in a long time. After a long time, they were contacted by Kurone, the mood-maker who brought all of the “oddballs” together.

Looking forward to their reunion, they arrived at the rendezvous point…but…. When she regained consciousness, she found herself in a small room with no way out. It was a room that looked like an Alice in Wonderland theme. In each of the four corners of the square room, there was a chair and a table for one person. There was a nice cup of tea. And from the chairs, long chains extended, connected to the collars of the girls…

The “reunion” – it was a game of life and death to clear the past…!
