The Game has begun anew as SQUARE ENIX today announced that NEO: The World Ends with You, the follow-up to the hit action role-playing game, The World Ends with You, is coming to the PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch system in Summer 2021.

NEO: The World Ends with You transports players to the streets of the Shibuya, where they will take part in the “Reapers’ Game,” a life-or-death battle for survival. Players will take on the role of Rindo as they explore the heart of Tokyo to uncover the mysteries behind the sinister Game in which they have been forced to take part.

NEO: The World Ends with You brings a re-creation of modern Shibuya to life in a unique and comic-inspired style. Players can explore and enjoy the sights, sounds, and culture of this bustling city, fight monsters alongside their ally companions in fast-paced action battles, and complete missions as they seek to change the fate they’ve been handed.

A new trailer unveiled today provides a first look at the title, showcasing the hip visual direction, 3D environments, gameplay and battle sequences, and amped-up soundtrack underscoring the game’s eye-catching art style.

NEO: The World Ends with You is currently in development for the PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch with an anticipated release in Summer 2021.

Nice, it only took 10 years longer than it should have.

Still waiting for Half-Life 3...

Been a long time since I played the original, but I think he was shown to be one of the characters who definitely survived.
That, and he was popular.

He looks younger tho, thought this was some kind of prequel.

It like 2020 try to make up for how shitty it is.

If we didn't all die by 2021, it would be a great year for gaming.

That actually looks amazing, I expected it to be good, but... WOW. And the music... yeah I will really enjoy this. Now if only they announced a KH game for switch (one that's an actual action RPG) or a Chrono sequel and Square Enix will be my heroes again.

Also what about they team up with Nintendo for a Super Mario RPG sequel? GENO, MALLOW, OH MY!!!

At this point, Paper Mario is what you are looking for. And it seems you are somewhat late.

Twister is back! I wonder how the gameplay will compare with the TWEWY, which is really unique. I played the first one on an iPad and now probably will play this on my switch.

If you can sometime, try out the original on the DS. The dual battle system has a better implementation than the Switch/Mobile version.

I've played the original Paper Mario only (since I only had a low-end phone). It's nice but Mallow and Geno had to come back.

 

[Kwyjor]

I very much doubt a game will turn out to be "good" just because it's another Chrono sequel or because it has Geno and Mallow.

Don't you think think Square has demonstrated they are completely capable of taking a perfectly good IP and making a horrible game? Consider Final Fantasy: All The Bravest. Or the "bonus" content in Chrono Trigger DS.

We'll just need to hope for the best. Or it'll be another pile of sh*t.
