Is Danganronpa Back? Monokuma Voice Actor Fuels Speculation

In an exciting turn of events, the voice actor of Danganronpa‘s Monokuma, Brian Beacock, hinted at a possible return of this character in a new form. This is delightful news for dedicated fans of the visually engaging novel series that has been inactive for quite some time.

A few days back, Beacock posted a cryptic GIF on X (previously Twitter), which revealed the date November 15, 2025, sparking curiosity. In his since-deleted post, it appeared as though the voice actor was subtly suggesting upcoming news related to Danganronpa, causing fans to buzz with excitement and wild speculation about potential developments.

Possible Dead by Daylight Crossover

It’s highly likely that Monokuma could make an appearance in Dead by Daylight this November, given the game’s history of seasonal content releases and its knack for collaborating with renowned horror and slasher icons. While Danganronpa isn’t typically considered a horror genre, it certainly lives up to its reputation as one of the most twisted visual novels out there, much like Jigsaw from the Saw movies.

There’s currently not enough evidence to confirm whether Monokuma or Junko Enoshima is the culprit, but fans can’t help but speculate and come up with various theories. It’s also possible that main characters like Makoto Naegi could emerge as survivors in future events.

A New Danganronpa Game?

It’s possible that the revelation of Kazutaka Kodaka working on a new primary Danganronpa game following 2017’s Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony could make headlines if it proves to be true.

Revisiting the thrilling visual novel series, a fresh installment of the murder-mystery game could rekindle the enthusiasm of longtime followers and attract novice players to one of Spike Chunsoft’s distinctive creations. The third installment concluded with unresolved threads, yet the fervor for Kodaka’s chaos remains strong, particularly following his recent partnership with Kotaro Uchikoshi, creator of Zero Escape, in The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy. This overlooked gem was a strong candidate for Game of the Year.

Introducing a fresh set of characters and reappearing the infamous Monokuma could potentially be just what this series requires, as there’s certainly enough intrigue left in its dark and disorderly world for further exploration.

Based on Brian Beacock’s recently deleted post, it seems likely we might encounter more of Monokuma in the upcoming months. The specifics are yet to be defined, but guessing is always an enjoyable part of the experience. On a personal note, I’m eagerly anticipating a fresh installment of Danganronpa.
