Its finally happening – Tsukihime Remake
Hello everyone, it has been awhile. Hope everyone is doing great and wishing all a Happy Chinese New Year.
Yes, you read the title right. There
is great reason to celebrate for Type-Moon fans. Tears were shed when Type-Moon
released the trailer for the Tsukihime remake, Tsukihime – A piece of blue
glass moon, on 31 Dec 2020. After waiting for what seemed like an eternity, prayers
were finally answered.
A brief overview of Tsukihime for those unfamiliar. Tsukihime is a visual novel written by Kinoko Nasu and developed by the game company, Type-Moon, way back in the year 2000. Type-Moon found much success with Tsukihime back then but quickly became overshadowed by the release of Fate/stay night in 2004 which was also developed by them. Fate/stay night is another visual novel and brainchild of Nasu which would quickly propel him into one of the most prominent visual novelists in Japan.
Being a huge fan of type-moon, I had
to give Tsukihime a try and first played the visual novel back in 2014.
Tsukihime (2000) had an amazing storyline but was admittedly held back by its outdated
art and visuals. A remake was announced by Type-Moon in 2008 but would only
come to materialize 13 years later, in Q3 of 2021 for the PlayStation 4 and Nintendo
Switch in Japan. As for the reason of the significant delay, fans could only
speculate but it was likely due to Nasu being occupied by other projects related to
the Fate series such as Fate/Grand Order.
Would I recommend you to try playing the
Tsukihime remake? Yes, I would. If you
enjoy an intriguing storyline with what seems to be god-tier visuals, then you
might want to consider playing the remake of this popular visual novel from the
2000s. However, do bear in mind that being a visual novel, the gameplay will be
just reading texts for the most part and is definitely not for everyone. I have
included the trailer released by Type-Moon above for Tsukihime – A piece of
blue glass moon. The hype is real!
You can only imagine the pure joy
felt by the fans, myself included, from the announcement and trailer of the
Tsukihime remake. The wait is finally over. As Kotomine Kirei from Fate/Stay
night would say “Yorokobe Shounen. Your wish will, at last, come true.”
