First-person dungeon crawling RPG Touhou Artificial Dream in Arcadia launched for PC nearly two years ago. It follows Sumireko Usami, an unusual high-schooler who is so strange that even the fantasy land of Gensokyo considers her an anomaly. But she can visit there in her dreams! Today, developer Bar Holographic Otaku and publisher refint/games announced they will be launching the game for PlayStation and Nintendo Switch in early July.
Here is a description of the game via Steam:
A new incident has occurred, and Gensokyo has a clone problem
Artificial Dream in Arcadia is a first-person dungeon crawler where the player, as Sumireko, has to navigate tricky mazes and capture a party of the strongest Touhou characters to assist them in turn-based battles. Go all over Gensokyo and beyond, to solve an incident which seems a little too convenient for Sumireko, seeing as she’s the only person in Gensokyo who has a tool to control this infestation of clones: her newly bought smartphone.
A large selection of your favourite Touhou characters
Clones are roaming the lands! They are known as Sleepers and take the shape of established Touhou characters, and as such, almost every Touhou character is represented and playable. Sumireko’s phone is equipped with a special app that allows her to capture Sleepers by beating them in a round of Danmaku.
If you win, you can add them to your party, or turn them into useful items! You can also fuse multiple Sleepers together to make something new entirely.
Adding Sleepers to your party will increase battery usage. If your phone runs out of battery charge, you will lose access to Sleepers and your Map, so always come prepared!
Developed by Bar Holographic Otaku and published by refint/games, Touhou Artificial Dream in Arcadia will be released for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch on July 3. It is currently available for PC via Steam/itch.io.
