About

Re:VER PROJECT -TOKYO-, co-developed by Toei Animation and indie developer Nestopi, is a survival suspense adventure game set in modern Tokyo depicted in pixel art. Yukinori Amane, who is falsely accused of a crime, uses his survival skills to evade the police and uncover the real culprit.

As a wanted man known to the public, Yukinori cannot satisfy his hunger by simply “shopping.” He must survive by finding acorns on the roadside or hamburgers in trash cans. Once his health is stable, he can work to “prove his innocence.”

Key Features

• Companion “Hinagi Mutsumi” – Yukinori will be on the run with idol Hinagi Mutsumi, who is also falsely accused. Together, they move between “hideouts” in Tokyo. As an idol and a famous person, Hinagi cannot venture out recklessly. The survival of his companion depends entirely on the player’s ability to gather supplies.
• Citizen Sensor System – In Tokyo’s society of mutual surveillance, citizens (NPCs) are sensitive to strange behavior. Players must scavenge trash cans without drawing attention, as citizens noticing strange behavior can aid the police investigation.
• Story of Rebirth – In this Tokyo, “once a person falls, they can never rise again,” whether they are guilty or not. Once branded as an outcast and socially excluded, life is over. Despite this harsh reality, the two stand up and try to overcome it. Will they reach heaven or hell? Only the player can watch over their fate.
• Detailed Pixel Art Depicting Real Tokyo – The game intentionally removes cyberpunk elements to create pixel art that reflects the “real Tokyo.” It portrays authentic Tokyo, not just Shinjuku or Shibuya, in a way only Japanese people can.
• Fusion of a Veteran Anime Studio and Indie Developer – This work is a collaboration between Toei Animation, with 70 years of history in anime production, and Nestopi, a Japanese indie developer known for challenging game systems with a small team. The fusion of Nestopi’s innovative development and Toei Animation’s long-standing expertise in story and art brings a fresh breeze to indie games.
