Square Enix has announced the follow up to the popular 2007 Nintendo DS cult classic RPG “The World Ends With You“. While the game’s name is pretty much the same thing, it is indeed a follow-up to the original and follows the story of new characters who once again participate in the Reapers’ Game while exploring the Shibuya district of Tokyo. NEO: The World Ends With You is set to release on PS4 and Switch sometime in 2021.
