Neo: The World Ends With You\u00a0takes place after the events of the 2007 original and follows protagonist Rindo, a teen who finds himself trapped in the same Reapers\u2019 Game that plagued Neku and his pals. For those unfamiliar, the Reapers\u2019 Game is a deadly game of survival set once again in the Shibuya district of Tokyo.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>The new trailer introduces the main cast of new characters and returning faces, as well as a tantalizing tease at the end. The game\u2019s signature art remains intact but the combat has evolved beyond the original game\u2019s 2D battles into a 3D style reminiscent of Kingdom Hearts. Don\u2019t worry though, you\u2019ll still be collecting tons of pins to augment Rindo and his crew with various special abilities to take on the Noise.

I love the first game for its story and inventive use of the DS&#8217; two screens, so I&#8217;m curious to see how a follow-up built from the ground-up with one screen in mind pans out. If nothing else, it already has the sense of style\u00a0and sweet soundtrack (composed once again by\u00a0<\/span><\/span>Takeharu Ishimoto) down\u00a0even if the English voices seem &#8230; a bit much.<\/p>\n<p><span><span>If you\u2019re a newcomer looking to catch up on the series, you can check out our review of the first game\u2019s enhanced Switch port, The World Ends With You: Final Remix, <\/span><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/review\/the-world-ends-with-you-final-remix\/a-shoddy-cover-of-a-great-original\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span><span><span><span>here<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><span><span>.
