DOD4 Is Already Complete!!

This just in! It was just officially announced in today’s issue of Big GanGan that a novelized version of DOD3 will be available on August 28! In the meantime, you can pre-order it from the Square Enix e-STORE from the link listed below!!

Just like the novelized version of DOD1, this book is also written by Eishima Jun and supervised by Yoko Taro, featuring a white stylized illustration of Zero and Mikhail on the cover, illustrated by Fujisaka Kimihiko!

*** This very well may be the specific timeline that directly connects DOD3 with DOD1!!!

Where might it possibly lead, this new branch through time that the Utautai traitor Zero and dragon Mikhail tread upon?
