Today Izanagi Games revealed a new actress that will star in Death Come true, the new game by Danganronpa creator Kazutaka Kodaka.
Chiaki Kuriyama plays the role of police officer Akane Sachimura.
Here’s what the press release says about the character:
“She is a woman who was in the same hotel room that Makoto Karaki woke up in. She is discovered in an empty bathtub, unconscious and tied up.
She is a female police investigator who is part of the Special Investigation Division. Although she has a strong character, she also has a soft side to her.”
Kuriyama-san is known for many roles including Hollywood movies like Kill Bill Volume 1 (in which she played the schoolgirl bodyguard Gogo Yubari), Battle Royale, A Sower of Seeds 2, and more.
The press release also includes a comment directly from the actress:
“This was a very challenging project, so I put great effort into my acting, taking it scene by scene. I am also looking forward to playing the game. Please join us in this brand new endeavor.”

The game is described as an “authentic full-motion video game” mixing gameplay and live-action. It will include multiple endings depending on the choices made by players.
There are four more actors to reveal, and the official website now features a saeven day-long countdown for the next announcement.
