Code Z is a spin-off chapter in the Death End Request universe. A tactical RPG series mixed with Visual Novel storytelling. Expect a dark narrative with multiple Bad Endings. Code Z offers different gameplay but really leans into the gore and dark theme. Here’s what to expect:
- Roguelike Gameplay: A mystery dungeon roguelike adventure where you face randomly generated levels and danger around every corner.
- Conquer the Strain Area: Sayaka must explore the Strain Area to find a way out. Fight big bosses, plan ahead, and decide whether to run or fight.
- A New Story: Learn more about our new heroine Sayaka Hiwatari and the parallel world of World DE-1.5. It’s tough to know who’s friend or foe here.
This entry cranks up the gore compared to previous chapters, thanks to the return of Makoto Kedouin, the dark survival series writer behind Corpse Party. He’s been part of the series since the second game.
