Fans of the Death Note series have some thrilling news to anticipate. The Taiwan Digital Game Rating Committee has recently given a rating to a yet-to-be-announced Death Note game for both PlayStation 5 (currently priced at $556 on Amazon) and PlayStation 4. Although information is limited, this game is set to capture the dark and psychological depth of the original manga and anime series.
Title Speculations
According to the rating released by Bandai Namco, it seems the game might be named Death Note: Killer Within. This is based on a trademark application filed by Shueisha in various regions such as Europe, Japan, and the U.S., sources indicate. The game will be targeted towards players aged 15 and over, suggesting it will include themes of violence and what the machine translates to 'antisociality'.
Different Names for Different Regions
In Taiwan, the game is referred to as Death Note: Shadow Mission, but it is probable that the title in English will be different. Other titles related to the Death Note franchise include Death Note: Kira Game (for Nintendo DS) and Game EL Death Note (on Android), although these are not full-fledged games. While there’s no official release date available yet, more information is likely to emerge soon.
