On June 15th 2021, a collection of Danganronpa 1-V3, as well as Danganronpa S: Ultimate Summer Camp, called Danganronpa Decadence, was announced for release on the Nintendo Switch. The series is currently in a sort of limbo as Kodaka has left Spike Chunsoft to open his own company, Too Kyo Games and no new plans about it have been revealed while ambiguous news about whether Kodaka would be helping in a new game or not spread. It also has has a number of translations (official and unofficial) varying in consistency, so that context may affect how certain examples are written. The series is rather complicated, consisting of a series of stringing plotlines over several mediums. Throughout the game, Monokuma continues to give them all new motives to kill each other, and the player must find the killer in each chapter to make sure the survivors all have a shot of escaping together. And yet, horrifyingly, the bodies begin to pile up. Of course, the students swear against something as extreme as killing each other. Students with these extraordinary talents are given an "Ultimate X" title note "Super High School-Level X" in the original Japanese, and "Super Duper High School X" in the Project Zetsubou fan translation. This mentality extends towards any sort of niche, including unconventional ones like otaku and gamers and even criminals.

The premise of the first two titles in the series thus far take the same formula (while the third game exists in a new story arc, it generally sticks to this formula as well) the player takes the role of a new student at Hope's Peak Academy, a prestigious high school in Japan which only accepts the cream of the crop for its classes. The games combine mystery-solving with elements of shooting and even rhythm gameplay. Danganronpa note officially one word, but is often spelled as two - literally translates to "bullet rebuttal" is a series of "high-speed mystery action adventure" visual novels created by Kazutaka Kodaka, and released by Spike (now Spike Chunsoft) for the PSP, PS Vita, PS4, Nintendo Switch, Steam, and iOS.
