'Azure Reflections' (ALL) Comes to PC This Month, New Content to Consoles - Trailer

by Rainier on Sept. 4, 2019 @ 12:26 p.m. PDT

Azure Reflections is a vibrant, side-scrolling, bullet hell shooter where you dominate levels and relentlessly attack enemies with a variety of skills and upgrades.

Annihilate enemies and dominate levels using upgradable skills. Choose from three playable characters, each with her own special ability: hard-hitting spell cards, life-saving barriers or a devastating body slam. Azure Reflections takes the familiar perspective of traditional Touhou Project shooters and turns it on its side for intense horizontal shoot-em-up action.

Azure Reflections has multiple endings, but the sole path to the best ending is excellence. Only by mastering each girl’s skill set and defeating the bosses within the time limits leads to a conclusion to their tale.

Functionality meets fashion with accessories that add auto-fire, increase drop rates, reduce stun time and much more. Collect tokens to purchase cat ears, glasses, wings and other fun customizations for the girls’ looks and outfit them for battle. Mow down swathes of enemies in style to take over the online leaderboards.

Enter the troubled, cute and colorful world of Gensokyo. Originally created by one-man studio Team Shanghai Alice, the setting, sealed off from our world by a magical barrier, is the thread from which all Touhou Project games are woven. This Touhou Project fan game brings the humans and supernatural denizens of Gensokyo together to investigate the evil flowing from Scarlet Devil Manor. Can they protect their home from delightfully cruel bosses in this whimsical journey?

Azure Reflections will defend PC (Steam) from evil on Sept. 20.

An additional mode including two new bosses will come to Nintendo Switch and PS4 simultaneously. Boss Rush mode pits the defenders of the mystical realm of Gensokyo against its most powerful threats in rapid succession to compete for the best time. Conquer all the bosses from the campaign plus two new challenging fights against the main playable characters, Reimu and Marisa.

Fly through the vivid and unsettled world of Gensokyo, blasting away the evil minions pouring out of Scarlet Devil Manor. Take on the role of priestess Reimu, ice fairy Cirno or magician Marisa, each with her own set of special abilities, and dominate anime-style enemies and adorably deadly bosses. Performance against bosses branches the story down different narrative paths and harder difficulties unlock the best ending.

Upgrade skills and buy stat-boosting accessories including marvelous moustaches, cute cat tails, and stylish headphones. Equip a plethora of items to customize the girls for any playstyle and to place higher in online leaderboards.

“The developers behind Azure Reflections and Croixleur Sigma know their audience and have proven once again that they can create games with cute visual and stylistic appeal without sacrificing great gameplay,” said John Davis, G&R Representative, UNTIES. “Anyone looking to challenge themselves against deadly cascades of bullets will find everything they could ask for and more.

Currently available on Nintendo Switch and PS4, Azure Reflections will blast onto PC (Steam) starting September 20, 2019.
