Tsugunohi announced coming to Nintendo Switch in 2022

Each game can be played by simply “walking,” so even those who are not good at complicated game controls can play, and with a playing time of 15 to 30 minutes per game, you can easily experience the clinging terror of the world. We hope you will enjoy the world of Tsugunohi, where everyday life gradually turns disturbing.

■ 02. Playable in Six Languages!

In addition to Japanese, the Nintendo Switch version of the game will also include English, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Korean, and Spanish translations. The world will be able to experience the gritty Japanese horror atmosphere that is the charm of Tsugunohi.

In particular, Tsugunohi: Syowa Karano Yobigoe, which is not included in the Steam version, can be played in multiple languages on the Nintendo Switch version. The translation will allow us to bring the unique horror of the Japanese countryside, the setting of Syouwa Karano Yobigoe to people all over the world.

We hope that horror fans overseas, as well as those living in Japan, will appreciate the clever “art” of translation, which conveys the atmosphere of a Japanese horror film without losing any of its originality.

What is Tsugunohi

A horror game in which the protagonist progresses sideways through various paths = stages, and everyday life is gradually eroded by fear. This is a popular masterpiece by ImCyan, an indie game creator who has created numerous horror works. The first episode (released in 2012) became an internet sensation, with the title “Super Scary!” and the series has since continued to gain popularity, especially among YouTubers who play the games live on the Internet. In August 2021, a Steam version containing the seven games in the series and two new titles was released. In the same year, Evil God Korone, a collaboration with VTuber Korone Inugami of Hololive, and Zombie Scream, a collaboration with video creator Odaken, who mainly works on live video games, were released on Steam the following year.
