Game Summary

Released in 2000 for the Sega Dreamcast, Nanatsu no Hikan: Senritsu no Bishō is a survival horror title that remains an overlooked entry in the genre’s evolution. As a sequel to the 1996 Nanatsu no Hikan, this game built upon traditional survival horror elements while introducing groundbreaking mechanics that set it apart. Most notably, it was the first survival horror game to feature a real-time cooperative mode, allowing players to control two characters simultaneously predating later innovations in multiplayer horror.

Unlike its contemporaries that relied on fixed-camera angles, Nanatsu no Hikan primarily used third-person and first-person perspectives, offering a dynamic take on exploration and combat. While it never saw an international release, Nanatsu no Hikan: Senritsu no Bishō stands as an early experiment in cooperative horror that would influence later titles, marking its place in the survival horror timeline.
