NIS Makes New Hayarigami Horror Game for PS3, Vita
posted on by Crystalyn Hodgkins
Nippon Ichi Software's teaser website for a new Hayarigami project revealed on Thursday that Shin Hayarigami is being simultaneously produced for PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita. The full website will open on May 1.
The horror adventure game franchise opened a pink teaser website on April 1 that announced that "production on a new Hayarigami has been green-lit." However, since April 1, the site has been slowly darkening and changing to a creepier image as time passes.
The first Hayarigami game was released in Japan in 2004, followed by Hayarigami 2 and Hayarigami 3 for PlayStation 2. NIS has ported the games onto multiple platforms since their release.
NIS had announced plans for a live-action film in 2012, but then announced that the project had been indefinitely postponed since its partner Music Cinemas Japan filed for bankruptcy.
