A localized version was released on September 2nd, 2014 for the UsefulNotes/PlayStationVita. This version was later ported to PC via UsefulNotes/{{Steam}} in April 2016. It was also released worldwide bundled with the first game as ''Danganronpa 1・2 Reload'' for the UsefulNotes/PlayStation4 in 2017.

* UnconventionalFoodUsage: In the first chapter, [[spoiler:Teruteru]] uses a hunk of meat at the party as a means of concealing the murder weapon, a [[spoiler:metal skewer]].

*** Though it doesn't excuse what she did, when revealed to be the murderer, Mikan says she became the way she is thanks to being bullied throughout her life and nobody ever accepting her. When you look back at how the group [[ApatheticCitizens never call Hiyoko out]] on her merciless bullying of Mikan or reassure her when she called herself "worthless", she's not exactly wrong.

-->'''[[IronicEcho Byakuya Togami (Imposter)]]:''' Hey! Why can't you all act a little more mature...? ...Hm? What was that sound just now?\\

* SubParSupremacist: Zigzagged: Nagito is very adamant that Ultimates are inherently better than the untalented masses. However, Nagito has an InferioritySuperiorityComplex in that he considers himself worthless despite having one of the most powerful talents as the Ultimate Lucky Student, but still sees normal people as beneath him. The other Ultimates do not condone his views and largely detest him due to his insanity.

** Mikan uses this to sow further distrust of the Future Foundation among the class, saying that they truly deserve to be called "World Ender" because they intend to destroy 'our' world. The world she's referring to is the post-Tragedy world of chaos and despair they brought about as members of the Ultimate Despair.

* AdaptedOut: In the stage play, Nekomaru never becomes Mechamaru. Makoto, Kyoko, and Byakuya also do not show up in Chapter 6, with Monomi being the one who tells the students about the shutdown sequence.

* AdaptationalDistillation: Just like the first one, the ScreenToStageAdaptation cuts out several things for time, including; Twilight Syndrome Murder Case and Peko pretending to be Sparkling Justice in Chapter 2, Nagito catching the despair disease and Nekomaru being rebuilt into a robot in Chapter 3, the entirety of Chapter 4, the bomb motive in Chapter 5, and finally Makoto, Kyoko, and Byakuya showing up in Chapter 6.

* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: In the stage play based off this game, case 4 is skipped to save time, leading to Gundham and Nekomaru deciding to attack Monokuma, only to end up killed by him.

** Just as the remaining students are about to hit the Graduate button (which would allow AI Junko to possess their dead friends) the real Makoto shows up to save them.

!!This game provides examples of:

** The hidden Monokuma dolls can only be found in the respective chapters that revolve around the current island. They cannot be obtained by revisiting the previous islands in a subsequent chapter, so players will have to replay the required chapters if they wish to finish their collection.

** The hidden Monokuma dolls can only be found in the respective chapters that revolve around the current island. They cannot be obtained by revisiting the previous islands in a subsequent chapter, so players will have to replay the required chapters over if they wish to finish their collection.

* PermanentlyMissableContent: On a given playthrough, you obviously can't spend Free Time with someone after their death. In addition, if the player doesn't spend time with Nagito during the first two free time opportunities in Chapter 1, you can still spend time with him but ''cannot'' get his actual Free Time events.

* BittersweetEnding: The five survivors (Hajime, Sonia, Fuyuhiko, Akane, and Kazuichi) escape the killing game simulation, stop A.I. Junko from entering the real world, and, miraculously, retain their memories of the island and don't revert back to Ultimate Despair. Through this, they stay on the Jabberwock Islands to tend to their comatose friends and have vowed to create a new future of hope for themselves. Also, despite the belief that Hajime would be "reset" to Izuru Kamukura and lost forever, he retains some measure of control and sanity, possibly via a SplitPersonalityMerge. However, the chances of any of the dead students waking up are close to zero, much of the world is still in post-apocalyptic ruins, and Chiaki and Usami have likely been [[CessationofExistence completely erased from existence.]]

* MeatOVision: In Chapter 4, Sodia sees Hajime and Chiaki's faces as cake after nearly two days locked in the funhouse with nothing to eat.

* RedHerringTwist: In Chapter 3 when Nagito, Akane and Ibuki all have the Despair Disease, Hajime and Fuyuhiko go check on Nagito and then start looking for Ibuki when she appear to be missing. Neither of them remember to check on Akane, but nothing comes of it, as Ibuki is the one who was murdered and Monokuma lifts the Despair Disease once a body is found. 8th

** The whole killing game is only possible because of this, something Junko [[LampshadeHanging lampshades explicitly at the final trial]]. Once Monokuma took on the authority of "teacher," he was forced to find loopholes in the school trip's unbreakable rules in order to create a killing game without ''also'' violating said rules. Because Usami was a highly-developed [[ArtificialIntelligence AI]], the rules bound her (and later Monokuma) as much as the students to prevent her from going rogue or acting outside the bounds of her programming. Monokuma was subsequently caught by rules meant to ensure the students' safety: not only may he not harm any students directly (unless they break a rule), he also can't allow any innocent students to die. In order to get around this, Monokuma made the "student activity" the Mutual Killing Game, both so the students began killing each other (and each murderer would need punishment, as being discovered as the blackened would be breaking the first rule, hence it fitting the "execution" formula with little effort) ''and'' to avoid being forced to intervene to save the students -- the teacher is explicitly forbidden from meddling with the student activity, ''regardless of what the student activity is''. The fourth motive, making "see how long the students can last without food or water until a killing game starts" the student activity, also matches this loophole and the "No more than 2 victims per killer" is following the "no ''excessive'' violence" aspect of the first rule in [[FromACertainPointOfView the eyes of Monokuma]].
