Concepts for a sequel to The World Ends with You were conceived in the years following its original 2007 release, but did not come to fruition. Returning staff for the game include Tatsuya Kando as series director, Tetsuya Nomura as creative producer and character designer, Gen Kobayashi as character designer, and Hiroyuki Itou, who was game designer in the original but now serves as director.[1] Takeharu Ishimoto, the composer for the original game, though no longer a full time employee of Square Enix, returned to compose music.[2]
Neo: The World Ends with You received positive reviews from critics, but failed to meet sales expectations of the publisher.
