Historia, Inc. is launching the school-themed RPG The Caligula Effect 2 on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.
To celebrate the PC release and the 6-year anniversary of the series, the game will have a one-week 30% discount kicks off today.
Here’s a trailer for the game for those that wish to be more acquainted:
“No Regrets…” The mysterious Virtuadoll, Regret.
The virtual world, Redo, that she created, in which past regrets are erased. It’s a world where the thoughts of “if only it went differently” or “if I had done that instead” that we all secretly harbor, become a reality. It’s a tepid world free of regrets, where that “What if” life can be experienced.
In an ideal world separated from past regrets, the main characters who noticed the deception of this world gain the help of another virtual doll and form the Go-Home Club with the intent to return to reality. Taking on the creator of this virtual world, they embark on the most challenging walk home from school imaginable.”
A new costume called the “Retro Tatefushi Uniform” has also been added at the launch. You can change into this costume right at the start of the game.
The Caligula Effect 2 comes out for PC via Steam and The Epic Games Store today. The game was released for PS4 and Switch in 2021.
One interesting fact about the series is that it was written by Tadashi Satomi, who originally wrote for Persona 1 and 2 as well as the Digital Devil Saga games.
