Teaser Trailer and Reveal Showcase Stream

To tease the game's actual reveal, this teaser trailer was released. It's actually the Scenario Prologue movie, with a different ending.

• This version of the Scenario Prologue movie lacks the ending seen in the final game, and we instead cut back to the fallen smartphone on the pavement.
• The music ends differently and lacks the final's last portion.

Four days after, an announcement showcase stream went live, revealing the game's first few details and gameplay. Yoko Taro, and Yugen, the character designer also talk about the appeal of the game in interviews.
