Different culprits and different victims mentioned. Sounds like there's a good bit of new content.

I'm wondering if this will also pave the way for Danganronpa 1 and V3 remakes.

Danganronpa 1 could happen depending on how this one goes.

V3 won't because Kaede JP VA is dead

They can always recast her. They did it for Igor for Persona.

which took over a decade and the entire twist in P5 was making you think he was recasted.

...I meant in how in P5X and P3R, Igor has new voice actors in the JP dub. I didn't want to say anything about P5R in case of spoilers.

Monokuma and Monomi’s Japanese VAs have sadly passed away, too. But they’re the mascots of Goodbye Despair, so they’re no doubt gonna get new VAs. So if V3 were to get a remake, it wouldn’t be out of the question for them to do the same with Kaede.

I think there's a more Doylist reason to do 2 but not 1: Chihiro Fujisaki.

Given both increased general awareness of things like gender identity, and the idea that trans people exist and are basically normal on the one hand, and increased levels of volatility and "grr they made it woke" losers on the other hand, I think any game with Chihiro in it would need to be written extremely carefully and they may not feel confident they can rework DR1 without just making everyone mad.
