Yesterday Zero Escape 3 Game Director Kotaro Uchikoshi announced that the game is in development, and today he shared a bit more information during a panel at Anime Expo in Los Angeles.

Uchikoshi-san mentioned the following points (courtesy of Twitter user Justin Mikos):

4infinity means Mars Infinity.

The leaked words on the 4infinity website four months ago were just a test. Fans should disregard them.

Zero Escape 3 will take place in a base where people train to go to Mars.

Development just started.

Fan enthusiasm encouraged reevaluation of Zero Escape 3 and allowed it to enter production.

In previous games Uchikoshi-san wanted people to question common sense. In this game he wants gamers to question their own values.

Puzzle creation will be done by Uchikoshi-san’s staff.

Danganronpa writer Kazutaka Kodaka (who was present at the panel as well) knows the ending of Zero Escape 3 and said it is “out of this world.” It inspired him to be less lazy. He exchanges ideas with Uchikoshi-san often.

Kodaka-san would like to team up with Uchikoshi-san and make a game together.

A piece of artwork for the game was also showcased, and you can see it below:
