 In March 2015 , Aksys Games launched the website 4infinity.co , which only consisted of a countdown timer . Fans of the series began speculating that the number fonts on the countdown timer resembled the fonts from Nine Hours , Nine Persons , Nine Doors 's cover art , which led some to believe that the countdown timer would end with an announcement regarding the third Zero Escape game . The countdown ended in July , which coincided with the 2015 Anime Expo . During the Expo , Aksys Games held a panel at which they announced the continued development of the game . It was released in June 2016 , under the new name Zero Time Dilemma .
