Qureate and IXILL shared the first official trailer for Sentimental Death Loop, a new horror time-travel adventure game coming to Nintendo Switch and PC (Steam). The Nintendo Switch version launches first, followed by the Steam version at a later date.
Sentimental Death Loop protagonist Noa Asahi is killed after visiting her best friend’s house. After dying at the hands of her best friend, time begins to loop, causing Noa to relive the same events leading to her demise. Sentimental Death Loop players must find a way to escape this death loop by investigating the house, uncovering clues, and finding useful items. Noa’s actions will lead to different endings, so players must be careful about their next move at all times.
Here’s an overview of Sentimental Death Loop, via the official Steam page:
