Spirit Hunter: NG - Standard Edition - Nintendo Switch™

NG is the second entry in the new Spirit Hunter series, and the companion story to last year’s award-winning horror adventure, Death Mark. Spirit Hunter: NG follows the story of a cursed young man on a life-threatening quest to discover who—or what—is responsible for the disappearance of his little sister. To save her, our protagonist must team up with shady characters, face down spirits of legend, and make difficult decisions that can greatly alter the outcome of the game.

Can you save your sister and stop evil from destroying all that you hold dear? Or will you find yourself just another victim of an angry spirit?

Key Features:

• Creeping Horrors, Familiar Settings While its predecessor, Spirit Hunter: Death Mark, found its spirits in distinct, horrifying locales, Spirit Hunter: NG weaves fear seamlessly into the mundane. Face down monsters in quiet residential streets, neighbourhood parks, and even the protagonist’s own home. Be careful—terror lurks behind every corner.

• Search for Clues Use a flashlight to examine each location in order to solve the game’s terrifying mystery. Watch out! You may unearth more than you’ve bargained for.

• More Than A Visual Novel Spirit Hunter: NG offers an immersive and exciting gameplay experience, in which players must make decisions at key moments in order to survive. Players are offered a “Judge System,” which allows them to respond to each event with a spectrum of disparate reactions.

• Beautiful But Deadly The game features gorgeous illustrations from artist Fumiya Sumio, who makes the terror in each character’s face impossible to miss and renders horrifying spirits with stunning detail.

Winter’s Wish: Spirits of Edo - Standard Edition - Nintendo Switch™

This deal ends on April 21st, 2025!

About the game:

In 1716, the first year of the Kyoho era, Japan was under the rule of Tokugawa Yoshimune, the eighth shogun. In response to repeated monster attacks on the town of Edo, the Tokugawa shogunate establishes the “Oniwaban,” a secret group tasked with keeping the monsters under control and maintaining peace in the city.

11 years later, a girl born with special powers in a village far from Edo has been driven out into the snowy mountains by the terrified townspeople. The reason? Without fail, the girl sees a “black thread” whenever a disaster will occur, her unsettling ability predicating calamities with absolute certainty.

Then, one day, men claiming to be members of the mysterious Oniwaban appear before her, saying she is needed in Edo. Soon, the girl’s power, which previously only brought her misfortune, will become an invaluable asset to the Oniwaban and their efforts against the monsters…

Key points:

• A fantasy set in historical Japan in the spirit of the first localized console otome game, Hakuoki: Demon of the Fleeting Blossom
• A moving, emotional tale with gorgeous visuals and multiple endings to discover
• Choose from one of three different Oniwaban divisions for the heroine to join and get to know her colleagues. Be careful - they may not all be human!

Hinagiku unravels the secrets of her perfect world in this new adventure from a 
celebrated team of otome creators.

As the highly regarded visual novel “Utakata no Uchronia” celebrates the first anniversary of its launch in Japan this week, Aksys Games reveals that the previously announced English version will now be called Illusion of Itehari and is coming this autumn for Nintendo Switch™.

Pre-orders will be available on the Aksys UK Online Store on April 11th at 4PM BST, and an exclusive edition of the game featuring the OST on CD will be available only on our store.

The story takes place on a miniature garden in the sky, the renowned and prosperous utopia, Itehari. Our protagonist is Hinagiku, a noble lady from a distinguished family who longs for the world beyond the floating town. One day, Hinagiku, having just turned 18 years old, encounters an amnesiac man named Yashiro. Their fortuitous meeting becomes the catalyst that drags Hinagiku into a series of events involving the secrets and various truths hidden beneath the surface of Itehari…for this garden in the sky is a false utopia.

Illusion of Itehari is a completely new otome game project created by a renowned group of artists and staff, and the first project from "LicoBiTs", a joint venture by Broccoli and TIS Creation aimed at making games for the female audience.
