There isn’t much news coming from NIS America about their game, Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc (say that three times fast), but they have decided to show their first few screenshots of characters, and what also seems to be gameplay. If you aren’t familiar with the game, here’s a description:
Hope’s Peak Academy is home to Japan’s best and brightest high school students—the beacons of hope for the future. But that hope suddenly dies when Makoto Naegi and his classmates find themselves imprisoned in the school, cut off from the outside world and subject to the whims of a strange, murderous little bear named Monokuma. He pits the students against each other, promising freedom to anyone who can murder a fellow classmate and get away with it. It’s up to you to find out who Monokuma really is, and why you’ve been taken from the world you once knew. But be careful what you wish for—sometimes there’s nothing more deadly than the truth…
Danganronpa was originally a series of games released for the PSP several years ago, and NIS America decided to recreate it on the PS Vita some time ago. Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc is set to be released for the PS Vita sometime early next year in both America and Europe.
As you might have guessed, Jacob Czarnecki is a person who is very enthusiastic about video games. He has been an avid gamer since he was in the first or second grade, and his first console was a PlayStation, which ended up frying in an outlet and bellowing smoke.That later created a reason to get a PlayStation 2, which introduced him to FPS games (Star Wars Battlefront being his first). Growing up, Jacob's family lived in multiple countries because his father was in the military. He lived in Germany, South Korea, North Carolina, Arizona, and has traveled so much that he once uttered, "Do we HAVE to go to Venice again?". He is now located is in his place of birth: Arizona. Jacob has multiple wants in his life: to make it into an elite branch of the military, to reach an enlightened state of mind, and to serve a purpose that benefits others and not just himself. That doesn't mean that he isn't a fan of fun. Jacob likes to shred on his electric guitar when he can, likes to go on hikes but he likes camping even more, and absolutely loves handling firearms at the shooting range. He is one of the biggest Star Wars and Halo fans that you will find and just loves everybody (unless you give him a very good reason not to). Was it mentioned that Heavy Metal is this guy's favorite music genre? If not, it just was. Jacob has no idea what he wants to study in College, but he knows for certain that he's going. He still has to reach the pinnacle of his life, and he'll do anything he can to make it there in the best way possible.
