Spike Chunsoft have recently announced that they have partnered with EXNOA, the company that operates DMM Games, and Tookyo Games in order to release the multi-genre adventure game SHUTEN ORDER digitally on the Nintendo Switch and Steam (for Windows PC) on 5th September 2025.
SHUTEN ORDER is described as a multi-genre adventure game and has been created through a collaboration between DMM GAMES and Tookyo Games, led by Kazutaka Kodaka (best known for the Danganronpa series).
About:“Happy New End…Have a good end”
“168 remaining until the end of the world…” Humanity is approaching its end.
In a world steeped in despair and chaos, a strange religious organization called Shuten Order emerges, yearning for the end of humanity. The group rapidly gains followers, eventually forming a small nation state called Shuten. Then one day, someone murders the Founder.
Following their death, the Founder is resurrected as Rei Shimobe (protagonist), by a miracle known as “the Power of God”. However, the resurrection is incomplete—their memories are gone, and their life limited to a mere four days.
Two self-proclaimed “angels”, God’s messengers, arrive and declare to the protagonist that to achieve true resurrection, they must overcome “God’s trial”: identify and kill their murderer. Thus begins a high-stakes, four-day hunt for the truth, with their own life and the fate of the world at stake.
SHUTEN ORDER allows players to experience five different game systems within a single game, including stealth action horror and multi-perspective visual novel systems.
Main Features:
Multi-genre ADV: 5 Different Game Systems
The suspects are 5 ministers who control the Shuten Order’s government. Depending on who you suspect, both the storyline and game system can diverge 5 different ways.
Ministry of Justice: Mystery Adventure
During investigations and interviews, use the “Snapping” feature to closely analyze suspicious statements and intriguing objects. Piece together evidence and make brilliant deductions to find the murderer.
Ministry of Health: Extreme Escape Adventure
A dark and unnerving 3D maze… Intellectual puzzles that obstruct exploration and kill indiscriminately if left unsolved… Immoral rules that pit participants against each other. Sometimes, fighting is needed, and other times, teamwork, in order to survive this death game and escape from the mysterious locked space.
Ministry of Science: Multi-Perspective Visual Novel
A visual novel adventure featuring differing points of view and differing agendas. Make use of the flowchart and survive to the end of a scenario filled with multiple chronologically branching routes.
Ministry of Education: Romance Adventure (?)
After being poisoned by Honoka Kokushikan, the protagonist Rei is led to a certain school and meets three girls calling themselves “Kokushikan”. To unmask the real Honoka—who has the antidote—increase each girl’s Affection and make a successful confession of love.
Ministry of Security: Stealth Action Horror
Freely explore a 3D map while evading and hiding from the wandering killer, Nephilim. Deal with numerous gimmicks with one goal in mind: survive.
SHUTEN ORDER will be available digitally on 5th September 2025 for Nintendo Switch and Steam (for Windows PC) in both Standard Digital and Digital Deluxe Editions. The Digital Deluxe Edition will contain the game along with digital soundtrack and digital art book. Pre-Orders will also be granted an exclusive digital novel.
