AI: The Somnium Files - nirvanA Initiative review

System: Switch
Release Date: June 24, 2022
Developer: Spike Chunsoft
Publisher: Spike Chunsoft


As a core gamer, I’d never thought I’d find my bearings at the helm of a murder mystery title, much less a point-and-click adventure, but AI: The Somnium Files – nirvanA Initiative is out now, and sometimes its just the right time to break the mold and start something new. I’ve spent a full week delving into the secrets and story twists, so let’s take a look together and see what I’ve been missing out on.

Many publisher sales are taking place on the Switch eShop, including one from Spike Chunsoft – which includes the lowest prices ever for the Danganronpa games. AI: The Somnium Files has also received its biggest discount ever, which comes just in time for the sequel.
