TYPE-MOON visual novel, TSUKIHIME -A piece of blue glass moon-, will release on June 27, 2024 for PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch. Previously, it was only known that the title would release sometime in Summer 2024, so this is welcoming news for fans that have been looking forward to the game’s release. TSUKIHIME -A piece of blue glass moon- is a remake of 2000 Windows PC visual novel, Tsukihime.
The game’s official website describes the visual novel as follows:
The celebrated visual novel from Kinoko Nasu and TYPE-MOON is born anew…
TSUKIHIME -A piece of blue glass moon- collects the two tales that make up the “Near Side of the Moon” portion of the original Tsukihime: Arcueid’s scenario, “Moon Princess,” and Ciel’s scenario, “Midnight Rainbow.”
Creator Kinoko Nasu has painstakingly disassembled and rebuilt the story, updating the setting to 2010s Tokyo and expanding the narrative. This reimagined presentation will exhilarate players with its hard-hitting tension and realism.
Featuring beautifully evolved visuals, animations, and music, TSUKIHIME -A piece of blue glass moon- presents a fresh take on TYPE-MOON’s genre-defining classic.
