Danganronpa: Warriors of Despair

Danganronpa: Warriors of Despair (Japanese: ダンガンロンパ 無双: 絶望の戦士 Danganronpa Musou: Zetsubō no Senshi, lit. Danganronpa Unrivalled: Soldiers of Despair) is an action hack-and-slash spin-off of the Danganronpa series developed by Existence Software and ω-Force and published by Koei Tecmo for the PlayStation 4. The game is based on Koei's long-running Warriors (無双 Musō, Unrivalled) series of video games, and is set within the world of Spike Chunsoft's Danganronpa murder mystery franchise. NIS America, the publishers of the Danganronpa series in the west, worked alongside Koei Tecmo in order to make the localization between it and other games in the series consistent.
Danganronpa: Warriors of Despair puts focus on the Future Foundation, a group working to spread hope and end The Biggest, Most Awful, Most Tragic Event in Human History caused by the Ultimate Despair, Junko Enoshima, and her followers. In terms of the timeline of the series, the game begins during the School Life of Mutual Killing (the events of the first game, Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc) and ends a short time before the events of Dnaganronpa 3: The End of Hope's Peak Academy - Side: Future.
The game is not considered to be entirely canonical by series creator Kazutaka Kodaka, primarily due to the fact that Warriors of Despair includes abridged versions of the plots of some of the series' spin-offs and supplementary material.

Junko Enoshima 	Junko Enoshima is the true Ultimate Despair, the one who caused The Biggest, Most Awful, Most Tragic Event in Human History. A student of Hope's Peak Academy's Class 78, Junko was scouted as the Ultimate Fashionista, though this talent of her's was only a ploy to hide her true title of Ultimate Analyst; using her analytical mind, she could easily view the current trends in order to determine what would become popular in the near future. While this made her famous as a fashion star, it also made Junko bored with the world, as she described everything as predictable and uninteresting, thus she yearned to spread a despair that was unpredictable in nature. Junko was seen as a sort of goddess to the Ultimate Despairs that followed under her, and all the despair they caused was in her name. Unfortunately, her death at the end of the School Life of Mutual Killing allowed the Future Foundation to begin spreading their hope easier.	Junko Enoshima fights with a baseball bat, though she uses a variety of different weapons in her combos. Almost all of her standard attacks have wider range than most characters, and this carries over to her stronger attacks as well, summoning several items that were used in the different executions from the Danganronpa series.
Mukuro Ikusaba 	Mukuro Ikusaba is Junko Enoshima's twin sister, and will do anything to further Junko's goals. Like her sister, Mukuro is a student of Hope's Peak Academy, where she was scouted as the Ultimate Soldier for being a hardened soldier of the mercenary group Fenrir yet never sustained even a scratch in battle. Despite being in the same class as Junko, Mukuro had to pretend to be unrelated to her, yet still worked alongside her in causing The Biggest, Most Awful, Most Tragic Event in Human History. Mukuro is a timid girl whose love and admiration for her sister overshadows most other emotions, though she also harbours romantic interest in Makoto Naegi, as he was the first person who genuinely smiled and was nice to her. 	Mukuro fights with a number of different weapons, from handguns to knives, that she trained and fought with during her time with Fenrir. Her large arsenal of weaponry allows her to be a powerful warrior whose attacks have a lot of range, though some of her stronger attacks do leave her open a fair bit.

== Trivia ==
* Barring Danganronpa: Unlimited Battle and the tech demo released for the PlayStation VR, Warriors of Despair is the first Danganronpa game not to be released on the PlayStation Vita in any capacity.
* Danganronpa: Warriors of Despair was originally planned to be named Danganronpa: Warriors of Hope (Japanese: ダンガンロンパ 無双: 希望の戦士 Danganronpa Musou: Kibō no Senshi, lit. Danganronpa Unrivalled: Soldiers of Hope). This was changed as to avoid confusion with the Warriors of Hope group that appears in Danganronpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls.
