Overview

• The game releases on 25 September for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S at €80 with an 18+ rating.
• Set in a 1960s Japanese mountain village, the story centers on teen protagonist Hinako Shimizu and themes of social pressure and trauma.
• Survival play leans on exploration and puzzles with improvised melee weapons that degrade, scarce repair kits, and tight inventory limits.
• A Focus meter links fear to temporary loss of control, making panic management as critical as health or damage.
• Early coverage praises the atmosphere, sound design and narrative while noting sluggish combat and inventory friction; PC tests confirm UE5 5.4.2 with TSR, DLSS 3 and FSR 3.1, optional DLSS 4/FSR 4 via drivers, no frame generation, and 30 fps cutscenes.
