Fatal Frame 2 Crimson Butterfly Remake coming to PC, consoles

Get hype!

Fatal Frame 2 Crimson Butterfly Remake was today announced for PC, Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch 2 by Koei Tecmo and Team Ninja.

“In FATAL FRAME II: Crimson Butterfly REMAKE, twin sisters Mio and Mayu Amakura find themselves lost in a village that has vanished from the map,” Koei Tecmo said in a press release.

“Fighting to unravel the mysteries of the supernatural phenomena surrounding them in a village of never-ending night, the twins are hunted by vengeful spirits as they attempt to escape a mysterious ritual. Separated from her sister, Mio attempts to find Mayu and escape, armed only with the Camera Obscura, a device that captures and seals away the impossible,” Koei Tecmo continued. “Unbeknownst to her, Mio’s actions will involuntarily reproduce the past and lead her to the deepest reaches of the village, where she will uncover the truth behind the ‘forbidden ritual that must never be witnessed.'”

FATAL FRAME II: Crimson Butterfly REMAKE will feature a complete overhaul of the original game, including graphics and audio enhancements, as well as improvements to core gameplay systems and controls,” the publisher added. “The Camera Obscura, a key mechanism in the series, will offer fans a richer and more captivating gameplay experience both during exploration and combat.”

The title will feature voice in Japanese with text in English, French, German, Italian and Spanish, Koei Tecmo also confirmed.

A full remake of the original PS2 game from way back in 2003, players can expect Fatal Frame 2 Crimson Butterfly Remake sometime in 2026 on Windows PC via Steam, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, PS5, and Switch 2.
