'Touhou Luna Nights' Comes To PS4 And PS5 Later This Month - Trailer

by Rainier on Jan. 10, 2024 @ 12:18 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 protagonist is a recurring Touhou Project character, Sakuya Izayoi. Remilia Scarlet, head vampire of the Scarlet Devil Mansion sends her maid Sakuya Izayoi with no warning to a world much like Gensokyo, but not quite. With no choice but to search for a way out of this strange world of Luna Nights, Sakuya begins her journey.

The action in this title is heavily based around Sakuya’s inherent ability to stop time and her skills with throwing knives, all expressed through stunning sprite animations. Aside from this there is the well known Touhou Project Graze system where you can avoid enemy attacks just in time to restore HP and MP and promote an exhilarating style of gameplay.

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

For the longest time, fans have been asking PLAYISM and Team Ladybug for a PlayStation release of Touhou Luna Nights, but every time we've had to give the disappointing answer, "Sorry, we don't have plans for a PS release right now."

PLAYISM is proud to announce that Touhou Luna Nights will become available for PS4 and PS5 on January 25, 2024.

To everyone who's ever asked for a PS release over the years... Thank you so much for waiting. We're finally officially releasing a PS version of the game. You can say this game is Team Ladybug's "origin", and we hope that more players can enjoy this game which has a special place in our heart. Even if you've already played the game before, you can always give it another go on the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5!"

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

Currently available on Nintendo Switch, Xbox One and PC (Steam), Touhou Luna Nights is coming to PS4 and PS5 on January 25, 2024 for $17.99/14.99€.
