Touhou Genso Wanderer Announced
Santa Ana, Calif. (June 8, 2016) – NIS
America is happy to announce that Touhou Genso Wanderer, a
roguelike set within the expansive Touhou Project universe, will
be gracing Western shores in early 2017. Touhou Genso Wanderer
(released in Japan as Fushigi no Gensokyo: The Tower of Desire )
will be available for the PlayStation®4 and PlayStation®Vita as
both a physical and digital release in North America and Europe
early next year.
About the Game:
In this roguelike RPG, you will take control of Reimu, the
Hakurei Shrine Maiden, to investigate the latest incident to
take place in the world of Gensokyo . Along the way, you’ll
encounter a variety of characters from the Touhou Project
universe, discover mountains of loot —each piece of which is
valuable thanks to the game’s item fusion system — and test your
mettle with your favorite Touhougirl in tow as your adventuring
partner in this approachable take on the roguelike genre.
About the Story:
One day, Reimu Hakurei is visiting Rinnosuke Morichika at his
shop, Kourindo. He shows her one of his prized possessions, the
golden sphere. However, when she touches it, it unleashes a
mysterious beam of light. Rinnosuke starts acting strange, and a
giant tower now stands where Kourindo used to be. The population
of Gensokyo has also been replicated by clones who attack people
on sight. As the Hakurei Shrine Maiden, it is Reimu's duty to
resolve this latest incident and bring peace back to Gensokyo.
Along the way, she is joined by Futo Mononobe, who has recently
set out on a quest to become a first class sage. With her
partner in tow, can Reimu make her way through the dungeons of
the tower and put an end to this incident?
