[align=left]Death end re;Quest takes the classic turn-based RPG and turns it on its head. Players are able to change the game's genre and switch game modes from RPG into fighting, shooter, and even a slot mode! You'll also be able to jump at will between the in-game world and the real world to investigate your missing friend, unlocking one of multiple endings. Choose wisely as lines between fantasy and reality will begin to blur...
KEY FEATURES
Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction? – Jump between reality and in-game modes, as players will need to investigate in real world view to solve the mysterious inner-workings of the World Odyssey, and switch to an in-game view mode to battle against glitched-out monsters. Choose options wisely, as your decision can change the game’s ending!

So, SO happy to finally get this announcement! I've been waiting for them to announce this for what feels like forever. There's so many awesome aspects to this game that make me believe this could be the best Compile Heart game yet. It'll be tough to beat out how good MegaNep was, but I think this game has a chance, and I cannot wait to get to play it.
One of my favorite aspects of this game that was reported on from when the game was first coming out in Japan is that there are parts in the game that you can game over at that you wouldn't expect. The video in the article that demonstrated this showed one part where if the player tries to leave the area to go save instead of going and fighting the boss, they'll be met with a game over. It's such an awesome concept and I hope they utilize it to great effect in the game. It has so much potential to be such a great and punishing mechanic. I'm sure IFI will update the official site with all of the juicy info on all of the game's mechanics in the next several months, so be sure to keep an eye on that if you want to find out more about the game!
Now just to wait to see what kind of Limited Edition IFI will make for the game. :3
