Unsurprisingly, the game's confirmed as being another ADV, just like Rinne Utopia which released on PS3 last year. It's set after volume 7 of the Date A Live light novels and is said to revolve around Shidou (the MC) being trapped inside a virtual world.
As with its prequel, the game introduces an original character who plays a prominent role in the story. Her name's Arusu Maria (below image) and she's believed to be an AI construct or similar. Dengeki has apparently confirmed that she has an 'opposite' who also features in the game.
Characters from volumes 5-7 of the light novel will feature in Arusu Install, in addition to the majority of the characters from Rinne Utopia. In particular, it's believed that the Yamai sisters (below image) and Izayoi Miku (not pictured) will have routes in the game. Arusu being the true route is basically a given.
The most important piece of news, however, is that the One True Waifu Tokisaki Kurumi is confirmed as returning:
The game's set for release for PS3 in summer 2014. The LE will come with a special book containing a short story by the series' author, some unused illustrations by Tsunako and a drama CD featuring Arusu.
As with its prequel, the chances of it seeing a western release are minimal, but providing there're CGs of Kurumi I'll import it faster than you can install a PS3 game.
