'Touhou Luna Nights' Leaves Early Access Next Week, Launch Content - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on Feb. 20, 2019 @ 1:43 p.m. PST

Touhou Luna Nights is a 2D metroidvania style game action-exploration spinoff of the Touhou Project series.

“Now... my world will begin...”

The vampire from the Scarlet Devil Mansion ,"Remilia Scarlet," suddenly sends her maid, "Sakuya Izayoi" to a parallel universe similar to Gensokyo.

A strange world, with strange youkai.
What is Remilia up to……?

Using her power to control time, Sakuya races through this parallel universe to find the truth behind this elaborate “game”, and to “perfectly” play along with Lady Remilia’s time-killing hobby...


Currently in Steam Early Access, Touhou Luna Nights will be getting a v 1.0 update on February 26 which includes Stages 4 and 5, after which Early Access for the title will come to a close.

This latest updated including Stages 4 & 5 introduces new features such as “Screw Knife” and “Shield Dagger”, as well as an extension of Sakuya’s time-control abilities – “Yellow Aura”, a gimmick allowing her to play out events in reverse while time is stopped – adding even more fun and action to battle and exploration alike. 

In this update, “Remilia”, the mistress who sent Sakuya to this strange world, appears as a boss character.

With the appearance of Remilia, Sakuya’s adventure was supposed to come to an end, but Remilia’s younger sister “Fran” also makes an appearance as a boss herself.

In accordance with the end of Early Access, the price will be changing from the original discounted price of $11.99 to $17.99.

Additionally, updates will continue to roll out after the closing of Early Access, and future updates are set to include the much-requested “Boss Rush Mode”, extra stages, and more.

Key Features:

  • Brilliant pixel graphics fleshing out the beautiful world of the Touhou series.
  • Metroidvania-style map gimmicks taking advantage of the character’s game-systemized ability to stop time and other powers
  • The 2D game adaptation of the Touhou Project’s “grazing” feature adds a thrill to closing in on enemies
