No Sleep for Kaname Date – From AI: The Somnium Files is a 2025 visual novel adventure video game developed and published by Spike Chunsoft. The third entry in the series, it is a spin-off set between the events of AI: The Somnium Files (2019) and AI: The Somnium Files – Nirvana Initiative (2022). The story follows the detective Kaname Date as he tries to rescue the internet idol Iris Sagan, who claims to have been abducted by aliens and forced to solve escape room puzzles to survive. Gameplay is presented in both visual novel format and third-person exploration for dream investigation sequences and the newly introduced escape room puzzle sequences, reminiscent of Spike Chunsoft's earlier series Zero Escape.
