Hey, everybody. I'm back again with an exciting update concerning the development of Danganronpa Team. I know Danganronpa Team is nowhere near finished, but I've decided to go ahead and start production on its sequel, Danganronpa Team 2!



Danganronpa Team 2 is tentatively titled as Danganronpa Team 2: Freddy's Revenge. Why is it Freddy's revenge? Because... um... because he's mad that he didn't get to be the game master in Danganronpa Team 1, that's why! In fact he's holding this whole killing game because he's upset that he got overshadowed by what should have just been a side character! And the whole game will just be you helping him learn to cope with his shortcomings while everyone kills each other! And in the end, Freddy will decide to blow himself up to atone for his crimes! And...

I just spoiled the whole plot of the game, didn't I? Sorry, I just get so excited that I can't help myself. A-Anyways, moving on!



This is a cast shot of the characters I'm willing to reveal so far for Danganronpa Team 2. This isn't all of the characters. Not even close. You guys know those Smash Bros. rosters that everyone makes whenever a new Smash game gets announced? The totally impossible ones that have like 100 characters on them? We're going to make that a reality. That's right. Danganronpa Team 2 will be the first Danganronpa game to feature a cast of over 100 characters.

I won't go over every character right now, but I just want to point out a few characters in particular. We've got the protagonist from the Emoji Movie, whose name I don't even know. But he's... he's going to die first. Just so you know. This is just me taking out my hatred of the Emoji Movie through my creative outlets. We've also got Honest Abe, who's meant to contrast with Kokichi from Danganronpa V3. Whereas in V3 you were like "Oh, Kokichi's gotta be lying", in Danganronpa Team 2 the idea is for you to go "Oh, it's Honest Abe so he can't be lying... OR CAN HE?!" Besides that, we've got everyone's favorite character from the Final Fantasy series, Coldsteel the Hedgehog. And we've even got a rock as a character. I know he might not seem like much, but trust me, rock is full of personality and I think he'll end up being a lot of people's favorite character.



As for the gameplay, I would like to announce that all of the gameplay in the trial portions of the game will be replaced with Hangman's Gambit. The one from Danganronpa 2, because they said it was new and improved. And you know, I'm all about improving things in the sequels to my own works as well, so I'm taking Team Danganronpa at their word and including what must be the best version of the best minigame in the entire series. Along with that I'd like to announce that there will be only one difficulty, Ultra-Hardcore difficulty, where if you make a single mistake during any of the Hangman's Gambit minigames, you don't just get a game over. You have to start the entire game over. I think you guys will love the added challenge.

Along with that, I'd like to announce that outside of trials, I'm getting rid of Free Time Events as they appeared in Danganronpa Team 1, where you got to spend time with groups of people at a time. Instead, when you have some free time, you'll be spending it with Monika. Just Monika. I know you guys might have been looking forward to trying to romance rock in the free time events, but Monika refused to take part in Danganronpa 2 unless I agreed to her being the only person you could spend time with in Free Time Events. Don't worry, though, you guys can still enjoy Rockbama. That's the official name for the rockxObama ship. And if I see any of you try to ship rock or Obama with anyone else, I will hunt you down and erase you from the Internet, because I am the creator of this game. My word is law and Danganronpa ships are sacred.

So that's about it. I hope you guys are looking forward to Danganronpa Team 2! Currently, it's going into full production and I estimate that it will be released on April 1st, 2022. Of course, as most of my free time will now be spent making Danganronpa Team 2, I'm afraid I have to delay Danganronpa Team 1. It is now projected to be released on April 1st, 2026. I know that's after Danganronpa Team 2, (and yes, Danganronpa Team 2 does spoil Danganronpa Team 1 so don't play it before you play 1) but you guys just have to bear with me here. It's a necessary evil. For the sake of my creative vision.

With that, I'll be getting back to work! By the way, I won't be posting any more updates for quite some time. In fact, I'm thinking of switching to a yearly update schedule. So I guess I'll see you guys in about a year!

Okay, now that I got that out of my system, time for the real update. Which is to say, there isn't really an update. But expect one within the next week or two! Chapter Two is nearing completion, but my life's been getting a little crazy. Things have been getting progressively crappier for no real reason lately, and I've been spreading myself a little thin between real life, work, Danganronpa Team, and some of the other stuff I (stupidly) tried to add to my (already) full plate. But with that said, I've been forging onward with Chapter Two. The trial is getting fairly close to being finished. So I expect Chapter Two to be finished and hopefully out to my beta testers within the next two weeks or so. I'll post the next (real) update when Chapter Two is finished and out to my beta testers. Wish me luck!
