Aksys Reveals Zero Escape: The Nonary Games US Release Date
Zero Escape: The Nonary Games, a compilation of visual novel/adventure-puzzle games 999: 9 Hours, 9 Persons, Nine Doors and Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward, will be headed to PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, and PC in the US on March 24.
Though the bundle does not include the last game in the trilogy (Zero Time Dilemma), it does include an HD version of 999 (originally released on the DS) with English and Japanese voice acting, as well as an "Adventure" and "Novel" modes, which will change the look of the game slightly. As Siliconera reports, several voice actors will be reprising their roles, there will be a new, in-game calculator to help with the game's math-related puzzles, but does not include the bonus ending from the iOS version of 999.
