Game publisher Aksys Games has announced that "Zero Escape: The Nonary Games" will arrive on the PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, and on Windows PC in spring of 2017. The collection will include two games, "Zero Escape: Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors (999)" and "Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward (VLR)."

The company's sales and marketing manager Danny Miscevich recently announced the good news on the U.S. PlayStation Blog. The upcoming game will now feature English and Japanese voice acting, as well as an improved, HD, graphics. This will give players a good reason to grab the game pack and relive the experience all over again.

Miscevich said: "What's that? You've already managed to escape the clutches of death and played both games through to completion? Fear not! 999 has been rebuilt from the ground up and now features HD graphics, as well as English and Japanese voice acting. Prepare to experience 999 as it was intended, and lose yourself in unparalleled immersion."

He also added: "The rules of each game vary from title to title, but the end goal is always the same: you must fight for survival and do everything in your power to escape with your life! That's right, the price for losing this game is death. Did we mention that you've been 'entered' against your will?"

A Steam page has also been put up for the upcoming game. It also displayed the system requirements of the game, although it really does not need a high-end system in order to enjoy it. The game requires at least a computer running the Windows 7 operating system, an Intel Core i3-530 CPU running at 2.95 GHz or better, and 4 GB of RAM. The game also requires a DirectX 9 compatible graphics card equipped with at least 1 GB of VRAM, 4 GB of space on the hard drive, and DirectX 9 compatible audio card.

"Zero Escape: Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors (999)" was originally released back in 2009 for Nintendo DS. It was also made available to the iOS. "Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward," the second game of the series, was released in 2012 for the Nintendo 3DS and PlayStation Vita.
