Recently launched in Japan, the Corpse Party Tetralogy Pack is headed to the Americas later this year courtesy of XSEED. This collection includes all the game in the “Heavenly Lost” narrative:

The standard edition costs $49.99, and is available for pre-order exclusively via Amazon. XSEED also mentions that Corpse Party: Book of Shadows and Corpse Party: Sweet Sachiko’s Hysteric Birthday Bash will also be released digitally, though more details about that will be shared at a later date.

Here’s some details and some screenshots:

The collection of titles includes the entirety of the “Heavenly Host” narrative including the modernized version of the haunting first adventure, Corpse Party (2021); the twisted sequel, Corpse Party: Book of Shadows; as well as the western console debuts of Corpse Party: Sweet Sachiko’s Hysteric Birthday Bash and Corpse Party: Blood Drive, the chilling conclusion to the Heavenly Host saga. The Corpse Party Tetralogy Pack is a celebration of what makes the Corpse Party series so memorable, filled with blood-curdling chills, nightmarish bad ends, and twisted narratives of desperate survival.

Extreme Japanese Horror: Explore the halls of Heavenly Host Elementary in a riveting mystery full of vengeful spirits, psychological horrors, and shocking secrets. The visual novel storytelling unfolds in the original Japanese voiceover with English subtitles.
 
New for Nintendo Switch: Book of Shadows and Sweet Sachiko’s Hysteric Birthday Bash will both be available on Nintendo Switch for the first time!
 
High-Definition Scares: Each title has been optimized for high-definition audio and video, making this collection great for first-time players, and a startling new way to play for longtime fans.

About Corpse Party (2021)
A friendship ritual gone awry transports high school student Ayumi Shinozaki and her friends to an alternate reality version of a tragedy-stricken institution that stood on the site of their own school long ago. As the vengeful spirits of elementary school students threaten their lives and their sanity, their only hope of survival–much less escape–is to uncover the chilling details surrounding the murders of those trapped before them.
 
About Corpse Party: Book of Shadows
An anthology series that serves as a Corpse Party sequel, prequel, midquel, and alternate universe tale all in one. Corpse Party: Book of Shadows builds upon the events of the first game, exploring or re-exploring past incidents, characters, and points of view, and allowing the player to escape many of the deaths that occurred previously, thus steering them toward all-new (albeit not necessarily better) outcomes.
 
About Corpse Party: Sweet Sachiko’s Hysteric Birthday Bash
A (surprisingly) canonical “midquel” to Corpse Party and Corpse Party: Book of Shadows, taking place sometime during the course of those games, Corpse Party: Sweet Sachiko’s Hysteric Birthday Bash recounts the bizarre events of vengeful ghost girl Sachiko Shinozaki’s one-of-a-kind birthday party held in the otherworldly school where so many lives have been lost in previous games: Heavenly Host Elementary. Surviving to the end will require thinking like Sachiko and making the choices that will please her the most…but with the fewest casualties.
 
About Corpse Party: Blood Drive
Set two months after Corpse Party: Book of Shadows, Corpse Party: Blood Drive is the definitive conclusion to the long-running Heavenly Host story arc. Featuring dynamic lighting, detailed environments, and new gameplay systems, this is a Japanese horror experience not to be missed!

In other Corpse Party news, mages. has announced that Corpse Party II: Darkness Distortion has been further delayed, this time to 2026. The development team (different than the one who worked on the Tetralogy Pack) is using the additional time to further improve the game:

The development team is using the additional time to ensure that the next installment, introducing significant changes in perspective to enhance the immersive horror, lives up to the Corpse Party legacy and delivers the biggest frights yet.

Corpse Party Tetralogy Pack (Switch) does not have a release date yet, but is slated for a 2025 release in the Americas.
Corpse Party II: Darkness Distortion (Switch) does not have a release date either, but is slated for a 2026 release worldwide.
