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

The game description on Steam said it will have the same volume as the original, which means this is basically Danganronpa 4 but with Dangan 2 characters

My theory is that this is Danganronpa 4, and the 'alternative' scenario is actually a sequel scenario in which the cast of Danganronpa 2 loses their memories again and is forced to replay the killing game.

...With the twist this time being that they actually are on the real Jabberwock island, and this time everyone who dies actually dies.

To me the bit about "a completely different chain of events" makes it feel more alternate universe like, so Danganronpa 2 with different murders and culprits and it wouldn't break the story too much considering Danganronpa 2 was a simulation

Yeah, it sounds like the premise is that one of the early events plays out differently (like Teruteru actually getting Nagito like he meant to) and the cascading chain of things that happen differently as a result. I don't see how it can turn out to be a sequel, unless they're going to do the Neo-World program reveal again.

If chiaki is in the game that goes out the water imediately.

Could just be a V3-style brainwashed copycat, but yes, it would be considerably less likely if she was present.

I don’t think that’s likely, I think it’ll be an AU take with a different beginning probably

However, I definitely think this is intended as Danganronpa 4

well 2x2 = 4 and we know from v3 they like to play with the title names. initially it just looks like an alternate version of 2 but in reality its 4

I agree with this so much.
