As we reported earlier this year, The Caligula Effect: Overdose is coming to the West in 2019. Today, NIS America have released a new trailer for the game, revealing new additions to the cast and showing off a little of their absurd personalities!

In The Caligula Effect: Overdose, the player can enter a virtual world, devoid of misery and filled with comfort. However, things are not as idyllic as they seem as the player tries to break free from the false paradise of Mobius. This version of the game, which originally released on Playstation Vita, will have revamped visuals, new endings, and double the story content; so now is a good time to jump in if you missed it originally.

The first new characters, Ayana Amamoto and Eiji Biwasaka are two new members of the Go-Home Club, a group dedicated to leaving Mobius and returning to reality. Ayana, a second-year student, detests men and cannot be near them. Eiji is a third-year upperclassman with a penchant for business, and is my personal favourite.

The Ostinato Musicians—μ’s composers—see Stork and Kuchinashi joining their ranks. Stork is an odd individual who loves peeping on women and has the power of mimicry. Kuchinashi is calm and doesn’t have much to say, relying instead on the gas mask-like device covering her mouth.

The Caligula Effect: Overdose is releasing in 2019 for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Steam! Did you play the original game? Do you think you will pick this up next year? Let us know in the comments, or on Twitter, and check back for more coverage of Japanese games in the future!
