A new Death Note game is on the horizon! The Taiwan Digital Game Rating Committee has listed Death Note: Killer Within for PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4, hinting at an imminent official announcement.
Bandai Namco – A Likely Publisher
Industry speculation points to Bandai Namco as the publisher, given their history with popular anime game adaptations. While details remain scarce, the rating suggests a formal reveal is near. This follows June's trademark registrations by Shueisha (Death Note's publisher) in several key regions. While initially listed as "Death Note: Shadow Mission" by the rating board, the English title is confirmed as Death Note: Killer Within. Note that the game listing may have since been removed from the website.
A Look Back at Past Death Note Games
Previous Death Note games, such as Death Note: Kira Game (Nintendo DS), Death Note: Successor to L, and L the ProLogue to Death Note: Spiraling Trap, were primarily point-and-click, deduction-based titles. These games focused on the psychological battles of the series, often letting players assume the roles of Light or L. However, their release was largely limited to Japan. Killer Within could represent the franchise's first significant global game launch. The gameplay and storyline for Killer Within remain undisclosed, fueling fan anticipation for a potentially thrilling new experience.
