Bullet Hell Slasher Homura Hime Announces Release Date at the Taipei Game Show!
Today at the Taipei Game Show, Taiwanese developer Crimson Dusk and publisher PLAYISM unleashed the latest trailer for Homura Hime, the forthcoming third-person bullet hell action game that combines fast-paced, combo-oriented combat with dazzling Japanese anime-style visuals. With a vibrant aesthetic that aims to recreate the richness and dynamism of hand-drawn Japanese animation, Homura Hime tasks players with ridding the world of the fiendish Archdemon Girls and their monster hordes, utilizing slick melee combat evocative of the NieR and Devil May Cry series.
Dodge the barrages of enemy attacks and string together flashy combos to clear the battlefield, excising tainted souls from a troubled world and unraveling the mysterious legacy of the titular heroine.
Welcome to a world populated by both humans and demons. Here, troubled souls burdened by intense emotion or deep regret are transformed into archdemons when they pass through the veil of mortality. These archdemons have the power to corrupt the very foundation of the world, contaminating their surroundings and the creatures who dwell within them. Those tainted by this demonic power turn into lowly monsters; vicious fiends that operate solely on raw instinct. When this world becomes threatened by a quintet of extremely powerful Archdemon Girls, the High Priestess has no other choice but to turn to Homura Hime, the “Flame Princess” and the strongest exorcist. Alongside her devoted aide Ann, Homura Hime must embark on a divine mission to eliminate the five Archdemon Girls and their monster hordes, banishing their evil and purifying her discordant world.
In addition to confirming a March 4th release date, the new trailer for Homura Hime also announced the Japanese voice cast for the game’s characters, including award-winning talents such as Tomori Kusunoki and Manaka Iwami:
