Famitsu has gone up with its first online preview of Idol Death Game TV, D3 Publisher and Witcraft’s newly announced PS Vita game.
The action adventure title follows the idols of top idol group Project 47 in a cruel competition for center position. And only “death” awaits those who are defeated in the judging of this competition.
Here’s the story:
“Dream of Dreams,” or D.O.D. for short—a competition to determine the center for popular idol group Project 47.
But the big event this year was shrouded in unusual circumstances. It is an obscure and unscripted event with mysterious selection standards where even low ranking members are included in the popularity ranking.
With everything in question, the live television broadcast began.
What fate awaits these idols filled with anticipation and anxiety…!?
Players can choose to play as one of the idols that appear in the game, and enjoy the story from their point of view. When deciding which character to play as, the mascot-esque Doripaku will explain the judging details. After that, the life-or-death battle for center position will begin. The characters that survive will change based on the player’s actions, so Idol Death Game TV will be playable many times over.
Idol Death Game TV is due out for PS Vita on October 20 in Japan.
