At a title-revealed program, the details of the Kaminagashijima game project were explained in detail, with the three companies’ representatives on stage would also explain plans for the title to branch out as a co-developed IP in the future.

Choosing Between God and Human

The synopsis of Kaminagashijima is explained as such: A group of girls one day awake to find themselves stranded on a strange deserted island created by the evil god Hiruko. In order to make an escape from the cursed island, the survivors must take on tasks while evading the many beasts Hiruko possesses to torment her victims.

It is explained in the live stream that players will split off into two competing teams. One player takes on the role of the god Hiruko while up to four other players are assigned the role of humans. Much like other games in its genre, the humans must complete tasks around the map and escape, while the god player seeks to hunt down the humans before they can make their exit.

Hiruko as a character cannot interact with the physical realm requiring her to instead possess the many animals that lurk on the island. However, if the survivors are close to making their escape, she is able to transform into a powered-up state where she can physically attack her victims assuming direct control.
