Some fun news from Aniplex, as together with Type-Moon revealed this week that a remake of Tsukihime is on its way next year. The news came from PR Times, which revealed that the game is currently on its way to be released for the Nintendo Switch and PS4, and that it will be released sometime in the summer of 2021. However, the launch will only be released in Japan, for While. The official name of the game will be called Tsukihime: a moon piece of blue glass, but other than that, we really have no idea whether the story in the remake will follow anything from the original or whether it will be strictly a whole new adventure with an entirely new cast of characters. Here is an excerpt from PR about the last game.
Tsukihime is a bizarre visual feature film released by Type-Moon in 2000. The fragile line of things – The story drawn around the main character, Shiki Tono, who has the ability to see the “death line” has fascinated many people since its distribution. The “Tsukihime” will be reborn as “Tsukihime -A piece of blue glass moon-” by the Type Moon team, including Kinoko Nasu and Takashi Takeuchi, with new expressions, keeping the remnants of the past.
We know from the official website that the cast will include Ryousuke Kanemoto, Ikumi Hasegawa, Kaede Hondo, Shino Shimojiand Kana Ichinose. From the little information available, we know that the company has been testing the game since the fall of 2019, but has not released anything for the public to try in the form of demos or betas. Basically, we’ll just be waiting for now until they release more information about us.
