Japan Gets Spooky Again in Yomawari: Midnight Shadows
Released last year on PC and PS Vita, Yomawari: Night Alone was both a moderate critical and financial hit, selling over 48,000 copies in Japan and scoring a strong 75% on Metacritic. Publisher Nippon Ichi Software have now announced a sequel to the creepy anime-style horror game, which will go by the name Midnight Shadows. Like its predecessor, it looks like another incredibly spooky journey into a Japanese night filled with vengeful ghosts and other things that dwell in the darkness.
I’m guessing none of you will be buying the Vita version of Midnight Shadows, as the systems been on life support sinnce its release back in 2011. So instead look for it on PS4 and Steam later this year. There’s no trailer yet, although Nippon Ichi’s US division debuted some screenshots. Seeing those cutesy character designs against such creepy looking backdrops is a sight that’s never gonna get old.
Synopsis:
The follow-up to 2016’s cult horror hit Yomawari: Night Alone, Yomawari: Midnight Shadows introduces two brand-new girls, Yui and Haru, to the night and the spirits who haunt it. Separated by a mysterious attacker, each girl will explore haunting and bizarre locations, face the terrors of the night, and test their courage and wits to survive and reconnect with one another.
