Survival adventure game resurfaces in Weekly Famitsu.
The latest issue of Weekly Famitsu has new information on Disaster Report 4 Plus: Summer Memories.
Get the tidbits below.
- Granzella is cooperating with the Kobe Fire Department on the game. The Kobe City Fire Department contacted Granzella directly to sound out the cooperation.
- Kobe Fire Department Lieutenant Takaoka commented: “When I was a student, I worked part-time at a game shop, so I had known about the popularity of the series from then,” and “If we can communicate disaster report and fire prevention information to as many people as possible through this title, then I’ll be happy.”
- Submersion through liquefaction will also return.
- The HP Gauge and Stress Gauge mutually affect one another.
- Types of disasters introduced in the magazine include intense fires, collapsing buildings leading to broken streets, submerged highways as a result of subsided ground, etc.
- Actions introduced in the magazine include walking, running, planting your feet, crawling, etc.

Update 8:25 a.m.: More information has come in.
- Disaster Report 4 Plus: Summer Memories will be released in Japan in 2018.
- Disaster scenes that occur are being recreated realistically and in detail through the investigation of disaster cases, and the supervision and cooperation of specialists.
- When an earthquake occurs, not only will buildings collapse, secondary disasters such as ground subsidence by way of liquefaction will also occur.
- Ground subsidence will cause manholes to protrude, underground water to overflow, and the ground to submerge.
- As the Stress Gauge accumulates, the maximum value of the HP Gauge will decrease.
- Actions include walking, running, planting your feet, crawling, etc. Walking has the lowest effect on the Stress Gauge. Running enables you to move faster, but easily decreases “stomach health.” Planting your feet is done when an earthquake has occurred, as to prevent from falling down. There is no risk of falling down when crawling, which you can use to make your way through small holes or to conceal yourself from others. However, it easily accumulates fatigue.
- Public institutions and specialists, such as the Kobe Fire Department and crisis management journalist Minoru Watanabe, were involved in the creation of the in-game disasters, as well as the disaster manuals that appear in the game.
