There’s not much in the way of virtue in Virtue’s Last Reward. Aksys really took advantage of the “M for Mature” rating here to give us a really immature 3DS/PS Vita game! Also, Sigma is a total perv.

Get ready for tomorrow’s release of Virtue’s Last Reward by picking up a cheap copy of its predecessor, 999: Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors on Amazon.

Okay, considering shipping time, this will only prepare you for VLR if you wait to get VLR, or if you get VLR on release day, but wait to play it. Point is, buy this game and play it, then play that other game.

Virtue’s Last Reward has “Erotic Units” and Gilbert Gottfried put-downs. After hearing the former Aflac duck’s 50 Shades of Grey reading, I’d give him a -20.
I’m unsure if Erotic Units play any significant role in the 3DS/Vita game, but it’s one of a number of secret files you’ll be able to find in Virtue’s Last Reward. I personally can’t wait to read more about Sigma’s cat problem. I could do without the “Grandpa videos,” though.

Virtue’s Last Reward trailer. Apparently, this was shown during yesterday’s Nintendo Direct, but I was feverishly writing up news about Pikachu 3DSes and eShop megatons and I have no recollection of seeing this.

Great music! And the polygonal character models are… actually okay!

Siliconera rounded up a checklist of differences between Rising Star’s EU release and Aksys’s NA version; most importantly, the EU versions won’t have dual audio (Japanese only), but a demo for both 3DS and Vita has already been scheduled. In the US, we get dual audio, but so far only Vita has a demo (which is already out).

New 999 boxart, to make reprints match the “Zero Escape” series successor Virtue’s Last Reward. The matching elements include Zero’s face and the “Zero Escape” logo – but this one lacks the first generation Turbografx-16 logo font, which is kind of a shame.

Copies of 999 with this boxart start shipping today.

Zero Escape: Virtue’s Last Reward bracelet, available in one of three colors (Red, Blue, Green) when you preorder the game through Amazon. I’m sure a lot of you already own the original 999 bracelet, but just think about the heights your swag level would reach if you rocked both on your wrist at the same time. Sky’s the limit.

Zero Escape: Virtue’s Last Reward boxart. I don’t know the actual name of this font (if any wandering Aksys employees happen to pop in, let me know!) but I know it as “Turbografx-16.”

The game is up for pre-order now on Amazon, by the way, with an October 24 date that is too distant to be accurate. It’s way too early to know the for-real release date.

And while you’re there, Virtue’s Last Reward is available to preorder now for both 3DS and PS Vita. Do it.

It’s official! Chunsoft’s 999 followup is coming to North America on both 3DS and Vita as “Zero Escape: Virtue’s Last Reward.” The branding will extend back to 999, which is now also part of a “Zero Escape” game series. Totally makes sense!

The American release of Virtue’s Last Reward will have voice-acted “Novel” sections. The announcement by publisher Aksys isn’t clear whether this will be in English or Japanese. The 3DS game will be retail; the Vita version will be sold over PSN and retail.

I gotta finish 999! Like, at least once.

Good People Will Die in North America

Extreme Escape Adventure: Good People Die — the sequel to Chunsoft’s adored 999: Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors — is coming to North America some time before the end of the year, thanks to the awesome folks at Aksys.

The news comes by way of Nintendo Power, which as far as I know only discusses the 3DS version, so I’m unsure if the PS Vita edition will make it out to the States. It’s also uncertain whether Aksys will keep the Good People Die title, but it’s difficult to imagine the publisher coming up with another name as strong as that.

Regardless of all that, I’m thrilled to see another Chunsoft game getting an English localization. More, please!
