About Corpse Party (2021)
A friendship ritual gone awry transports high school student Ayumi Shinozaki and her friends to an alternate reality version of a tragedy-stricken institution that stood on the site of their own school long ago. As the vengeful spirits of elementary school students threaten their lives and their sanity, their only hope of survival–much less escape–is to uncover the chilling details surrounding the murders of those trapped before them.
About Corpse Party: Book of Shadows
An anthology series that serves as a Corpse Party sequel, prequel, midquel, and alternate universe tale all in one. Corpse Party: Book of Shadows builds upon the events of the first game, exploring or re-exploring past incidents, characters, and points of view, and allowing the player to escape many of the deaths that occurred previously, thus steering them toward all-new (albeit not necessarily better) outcomes.
About Corpse Party: Sweet Sachiko's Hysteric Birthday Bash
A (surprisingly) canonical “midquel” to Corpse Party and Corpse Party: Book of Shadows, taking place sometime during the course of those games, Corpse Party: Sweet Sachiko's Hysteric Birthday Bash recounts the bizarre events of vengeful ghost girl Sachiko Shinozaki's one-of-a-kind birthday party held in the otherworldly school where so many lives have been lost in previous games: Heavenly Host Elementary. Surviving to the end will require thinking like Sachiko and making the choices that will please her the most…but with the fewest casualties.
About Corpse Party: Blood Drive
Set two months after Corpse Party: Book of Shadows, Corpse Party: Blood Drive is the definitive conclusion to the long-running Heavenly Host story arc. Featuring dynamic lighting, detailed environments, and new gameplay systems, this is a Japanese horror experience not to be missed!
Developed by MAGES. and published on Nintendo Switch™ in the Americas by XSEED Games, and in Europe by Marvelous Europe, Corpse Party Tetralogy Pack will be released in 2025. For more information about the title, visit the official website at https://www.corpsepartyseries.com/. This title has been rated M for Mature by the ESRB.
