New Trailer (and Steam Page) for No Sleep for Kaname Date

No Sleep for Kaname Date: From AI: The Somnium Files was my favorite surprise announcement from March’s Nintendo Direct, so let’s talk about the latest details!

Spike Chunsoft released a new trailer for No Sleep for Kaname Date, along with an official game description that confirms the new escape room segments the first trailer implied.

In addition to the “Investigation” and “Somnium” gameplay sections from the previous games, there will now also be “Escape” sections where the player must solve puzzles to escape locked rooms.

It also confirms that it takes place only one day after the resolution of the first game, which raises certain questions for me (you know what I’m talking about), but since it also says Iris has been abducted by a UFO, I have to question what’s going on in this game in general.

The trailer itself doesn’t show too much besides what was already in the Nintendo Direct trailer.

In addition to the trailer, thhe has been updated to reveal two new characters, one being an ABIS engineer named Hina and the other being the host of the escape game, Akemi.

The is up as well, with some new screenshots.

Preorders are open now, too. I’m a little disappointed that there isn’t a limited edition this time, but you do get a couple holographic stickers plus an exclusive Mizuki sticker if you order from . The store page also confirms that the Switch 2 version is a Game-Key Card rather than a regular game card, so even if I intended to get a Switch 2 at launch, I’d still be going for the Switch version.

Anyway, although I have some criticisms of Nirvana Initiative’s story compared to that of the first game, I’m excited for this new game and I can’t wait to see where it goes. What are your hopes for No Sleep for Kaname Date?
