Overview
Description

Apocalypse: Desire Next is a turn‑based strategy RPG set in a post‑apocalyptic realm where every decision influences the fate of its characters. Developed and published by Idea Factory, the game blends deep narrative with grid‑based combat, offering a single‑player experience on Xbox 360. Players command a diverse cast of survivors, each with unique abilities, as they navigate branching storylines and manage resources. The game’s strategic depth and multiple endings reward careful planning and replayability.

Tokyo is under lockdown after a sudden demon invasion, forcing its citizens into a brutal fight for survival. You and your peers discover the mysterious COMP device, allowing you to bind demons to your will and battle the otherworldly threat. As rival demon tamers vie for power, you must uncover the origin of the demons, the purpose of the COMPs, and decide the fate of the city through branching story paths and tactical grid combat.
