The Hundred Line Creator Ready to Start Work on PS5 Port, But Studio on the Brink of Bankruptcy

A small speed bump

Many fans have been pleading with Sony subsidiary ANIPLEX to port The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy to the PS5, but it looks like the hold-up revolves around developer Too Kyo’s financial security.

Writing on BlueSky, Danganronpa creator Kazutaka Kodaka – the co-founder of Too Kyo, along with Zero Escape maker Kotaro Uchikoshi – said that he’d “love” to get started on new versions of the game “right away”, but “we’re still on the brink of going under”.

Last month, in an interview with our friends at Nintendo Life, Kodaka said “if the game does not sell well, we may be done”. The good news is that it attracted great reviews, and does genuinely appear to be selling relatively well on the Nintendo Switch and PC.
