Mages released a new key visual, release information, and a stream for its upcoming adventure game Anonymous;Code. Mages President Chiyomaru Shikura streamed the game for over three hours. During this stream, he answered questions and explained details about the game’s world. [Thanks, Game Watch!]
There are three price points for Anonymous;Code. The normal physical version will be 8,580 JPY ($70), the digital version will be 7,700 JPY ($62.80), and the limited edition will be 11,880 JPY ($96.30). The limited edition will have the A Beginners’ Guide to Earth Simulator guide book and the Anonymous;Code Sound Data Log soundtrack. Depending on where you purchase it, you can get items of various characters. For example, ordering from AmiAmi will garner you a B2 tapestry of Momo.
The new key visual for the game shows heroine Momo and protagonist Poron.
Throughout the stream, Shikura occasionally answered questions that viewers asked. He also provided information about in-game terminology. For example, during a scene when Cross Yumikawa turned off his BMI, Shikura explained that BMI is like an AR device that functions almost like a VR headset. With the BMI on, the restaurant he is in looks like a fantasy inn with various elf waitresses. But as soon as Cross turns it off, you see that the restaurant is a normal one, and the waitresses are all actually men.
Anonymous;Code will come out in Japan on July 28, 2022 for the PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch. It was supposed to come out on the Vita as well, but it was canceled in 2020.
