A Final Trailer also went out with the release, condensing the game's world and play. Stages cap the corpses at five, and a sixth makes the earliest one disappear, so routing where and how to die is the actual puzzle rather than dying at random.

Takahira's lead role is built around a protagonist modeled on him, searching the giant structure BOX for its secrets. Studio Hi developed the game for Re3 / Ririri.

Launch goods include a Linked Corpse Keychain at 700 yen in six random types and a key visual T-shirt at 4,800 yen. Individuals and corporations can stream, post video, and monetize the game freely.
