Sunny and Basil would need to be far enough for plausible deniability, and Basil knew this. The friend group was nowhere near: they were at the concert hall, waiting for Sunny and Mari. If they were, they likely would have broken up their children’s argument. We also know that Sunny’s parents were not home when this took place. Her shirt also had bloodstains on it, from where Sunny picked her up and tucked her into bed. Logically, they should appear stained from the dirt and grass in the yard. Even though she had taken off her shoes before hanging herself ostensibly, her stockings were clean. According to the photos, however, Mari’s faked suicide was suspicious. Game canon confirms that the friend group believed Mari died by suicide. Yet by not facing the truth, Sunny has wracked damage to his mental health, and inadvertently broke up his friend group.īelow are some questions that players like myself still have after finding the truth behind this tragedy. They’ve both lived with the guilt for years on end, and Sunny retreated into himself, wanting to be a hero rather than a villain. His friend Basil staged the manslaughter as a suicide after finding Sunny desperately tucking Mari into bed, thinking she just needed rest. After Mari stopped moving, Sunny tried to wake her up. The big twist in Omori is that Sunny accidentally killed his sister Mari in a fit of anger.
The story also has some honest discussions about mental health, and how you can’t ‘cure’ anxiety, guilt or trauma with a simple boss battle. One may even dig up digital copies of the original webcomic, mere pages long, that led to the 26-hour video game.
Namely, about how the story uses the art of the sidequest to enrich the overall plot, and how greater questions posed in the game can inspire a person to dive deeper into the established lore. I’ve talked about Omori’s allure in previous articles. You can either investigate this tragedy or retreat from it.
They’ve also grown apart, thanks to a great tragedy that hit them. His friends in the real world have long grown past their perceived ages, their younger forms living in a dream world, Headspace. It follows a boy named Sunny, who lives in his dream world as an alternate hero named Omori. Omori is a horror RPG that seems to start with magic, before grounding us in the real world. Surely there has to be something that provides a sense of closure. I hope that changes as streamers navigate through twenty hours’ worth of gameplay. While the extra content lends some cool boss fights and animations in the alternate Hikikomori Route (including a Boss Rush room where you can fight your friends in playful sparring, and involve NPC Basil as one of your fighters), I found deeper questions that the game provided in the Main Route remained unanswered.
#OMORI SWITCH RELEASE DATE UPDATE#
So does the update add to the hype after the game premiered? New content could only add to the story, and perhaps some of the ongoing mysteries.

The gameplay may be overly long for the story, but the plot itself knows how to pace its revelations. Omori became one of those accidental obsessions over the past year. When this news came out, I admit I was excited. Players will find more boss battles on the Hikikomori route and extra Easter eggs. Omori released on the Nintendo Switch, the PS4, and additional consoles featuring new content and music on June 17th.
