Our Expert Score

95/100

Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair is an absolute tour de force in the visual novel genre. Moving the setting from a cramped school to a tropical archipelago was a stroke of genius, creating a 'paradise' that feels increasingly claustrophobic as the bodies start piling up. The characters are some of the most memorable in gaming—vibrant, deeply flawed, and unpredictable.

The 'Class Trials' are the highlight, featuring fast-paced mini-games that task you with literally shooting down lies with 'Truth Bullets.' The mobile port is exceptionally well-handled, with touch-optimized menus and high-resolution character art that pops on a retina display. It’s a dark, twisted, and emotionally exhausting journey that explores the thin line between hope and despair. If you enjoy murder mysteries with a psychological edge and a talking mechanical bear, this is a masterpiece.

Danganronpa 2 is finally available on smartphones!

The stage of the new killing game is set on a tropical island. Survive the evolution of the psycho-tropical class trials within the typhoon of madness, doubt, and suspicion!

Blue skies, white clouds, the glimmering sea, and vast expanses of sand.

The students of Hope's Peak Academy arrive at a tropical resort destination known as Jabberwock Island, but they end up trapped as castaways due to the headmaster's schemes. In exchange for escape from the island, the students are forced to play a killing game and find the killer through class trials. Play through high-speed and fast-paced class trials by gathering testimony and evidence during investigations and use them as ammunition to shoot down your opponent's contradictory statements.

Brewing suspicion... Unseen madness... Their limits are tested as the evolution of the class trial begins.

Jabberwock Island—once a popular tourist destination, this uninhabited island is now the site of a deadly game. You and your classmates at Hope's Peak Academy have been brought here by your teacher for a 'lovey-dovey, heart-throbbing school trip,' but Monokuma returns to cast you into a new game of murder. Investigate scenes, gather evidence, and use it to 'break' your classmates' arguments during the intense Class Trials to identify the killer. Despair has never looked so tropical.
