NIS America announced today that they’re bringing the RPG visual novel hybrid game by Syupro-DX, called The Longest Five Minutes, to the West in 2017 for PlayStation Vita and PC via Steam.
To give you a summary on what The Longest Five Minutes is about, you start out in the final battle against the evil Overlord, but the hero loses all memories from his adventure, including how to perform all the special attacks he’s learned. By having conversations with allies, and even the Overlord himself, the hero will regain his memories through flashbacks from his adventure, and will slowly remember everything in order to finish the last battle.
Below is a look at the teaser trailer:
