I'm sorry Iris...I'm afraid there might be...
*ZERO ESCAPE!*
I hope and pray that you will receive your
VIRTUE'S LAST REWARD!

[starblade]

I can’t believe they kicked off with the biggest announcement in the direct

[MunchieLuknight]

i bought the first AI on a whim because it was super cheap. It quickly became one of my favorite games/series. This announcement was my favorite of the direct.

Go play the first 2 if you havent. they are a rare 10/10 games

[ChristianCTaken]

"You are Kaname Date" is a cruel thing to say to someone

[icetweiz]

I knew it was Uchikoshi. Just the first minute was so Zero Escape-esque

[holydashi]

If this is a short spinoff idc, I better see a full blown cast doing what we expect them to do at the end of each game.

[kisaLuver]

Iris is dressed as a rabbit and trapped (seemingly) on the moon. Someone must have bought Uchikoshi that horse bc this is VLR.

[kt-fnuz]

I can't believe we're getting Kaname Date Cringe Compilation 3 😭😭😭

[TiringCoyote]

Featuring Date from the AI The Somnium Files Series

[preciousegg]

I LITERALLY JUST PLAYED THE FIRST GAME AND I'M ABOUT TO FINISH THE SECOND, I COULDN'T HAVE PICKED UP THE SERIES AT A BETTER TIME! LET'S GOOOO

[JoloAITSF]

The fact they showed this as the 2nd game. Not to mention that 1000s of people were now exposed to Kaname Date

[RturnByDeath]

OUR GLORIOUS KING HAS RETURNED!!!! Also i wonder if this a spin off or continuing the main story

[Stinkfly]

Due to Nirvana Initiative's true ending, it's possible this is a sequel disguised as a spin-off.

[DarknessDpa]

This looks like a weird side game but it also seems like a combination of the Zero Escape games and AI The Somnium Files since it takes place in their universe but Iris is stuck in an escape room

[BullseyeRey]

They had me thinking it was a new Zero Escape game for a second there. Always happy for new Somnium Files though.

[viggy]

they done sent our girl to rhizome 9 💀

[KIRAfollower]

The Hundred Line on April & AITSF3 on July?

We’re eating good this year

[mrs.]

THIS IS THE BEST DIRECT EVER RHYTHM HEAVEN TOMODACHI ISLAND AND AI THE SOMNIUM FILES ARE ALL BACK??? IM OVERWHELMED

[yam-is-a-bird]

Date's back, we get our weird detective man again!!!!

[LilyGrace]

Yeeeesss he listened to the fans!! We're Date again! And it's a more personal story instead of some impersonal save-the-world narrative? I'm so happy right now! Don't get me wrong, I like AINI for what it is, but this is what I was hoping for. :)
