Corpse Party, released in Japan as Corpse Party: BloodCovered, is a horror adventure game developed by Team GrisGris and published by Xseed Games for Microsoft Windows. Originally developed as Corpse Party: NewChapter for Japanese mobile phones, it is a remake of the 1996 NEC PC-9801 video game Corpse-Party, and the second game in the Corpse Party series. Containing similar gameplay to its predecessor, players control a group of high school students who are transported to a haunted elementary school after performing a supposed friendship ritual, looking for a way to escape. Corpse Party is the first game in the series' rebooted continuity, introducing new characters and elements to those present in the original game, while generally following the same plot.
