It's time to find the impostors among us and vote them out – I mean, send them into 'Cold Sleep'.
GNOSIA, originally a visual novel game, is now getting a full anime adaptation, and it looks really beautiful from the trailer alone.
Aniplex and Petit Depotto announce GNOSIA anime
Developer Petit Depotto and beloved anime studio Aniplex, the studio behind titles like Fullmetal Alchemist and Sword Art Online, have officially announced that they will be working on an anime production of Petit Depotto's GNOSIA.
It's announced to start airing in 2025, though we do not know exactly when yet.
The game itself is a visual novel and social deduction RPG with a concept many people are already familiar with through games like Among Us, Danganronpa, or the classic party game: Werewolves.
It takes place on a spaceship, where you have a crew of vastly different people. A mysterious species known as Gnosia manage to get onboard and take control over people, trying to eliminate the entire crew without being caught, while the crewmates try everything to figure out who the Gnosia are and get rid of them.
Story, taken from Steam:
The Gnosia lie. Pretending to be human, they’ll get in close, trick and deceive, and then eradicate each person in the vicinity from the universe, one victim at a time.
The crew of a drifting spaceship, facing off against a mysterious and deadly threat known as the “Gnosia” and having no idea who among them is really the enemy, formulate a desperate plan for survival. The most suspicious among them will be put into “cold sleep” one by one, in an effort to completely rid the ship of Gnosia.
However, it is almost impossible to tell whether each person put into cold sleep was really Gnosia – or simply a poor, unfortunate scapegoat, sacrificed by the Gnosia for their own survival. Can the humans emerge victorious? Or is mankind doomed…?
What exactly are Gnosia? Why do they attack humans? Discover the truth behind this mysterious lifeform and the intertwined narratives of your crewmates as you struggle for survival.
We are super excited about this news, and the anime already looks super promising, given that the game itself is already a big hit in Japan.
Are you excited too? Will you be watching this anime, when it comes out? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments!
