During the September 2025 Nintendo Direct, Spike Chunsoft announced a Danganronpa 2 x 2 remake for the Switch and Switch 2. That will include a new scenario, which will result in different people dying in different order and a new storyline. It will launch on both systems sometime in 2026.

The base game of Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair is largely the same in this remake. We’ll still find the group of Hope’s Peak Academy Ultimate Students on Jabberwock Island for a school trip gone awry. Monokuma shows up to start a killing game. This means investigating murders and finding killers in class trials. However, the new scenario that comes up will completely change the course of the game. It will result in unexpected deaths and pacing from the original game.

Here is the full September 2025 Nintendo Direct:

Following its original debut on the PSP in 2012, we’ve seen the second Danganronpa game show up on multiple platforms. First, there was the Vita release. But then, it eventually also showed up on the PS4, Switch, Xbox One, PC, and mobile devices. 

Danganronpa 2 x 2 will come to the Switch and Switch 2 in 2026.
