In FATAL FRAME II: Crimson Butterfly REMAKE, players follow twin sisters Mio and Mayu Amakura as they wander into an abandoned village infested by wraiths. This complete remake of the second title in the FATAL FRAME franchise introduces new gameplay elements, along with enhanced graphics and immersive spatial audio, to scare even the most seasoned horror game fans. The series’ signature system—repelling wraiths by photographing them with the Camera Obscura—returns in this title, allowing for a more dynamic use of the Camera Obscura in both exploration and combat, including Special Shots to help inflict significant damage and repel spirits. A new gameplay feature has also been introduced: the ability to hold hands with Mayu. This allows players to feel the true depth of the sisters’ bond throughout the story.

The Digital Deluxe Edition is also now available and includes the base game and the Digital Soundtrack and Digital Art Book, as well as the Digital Deluxe Bonus Set featuring the Deluxe Charm and costumes for Mio and Mayu*. A Digital Deluxe Upgrade is also available separately. Players who purchase a physical or digital version of the game before March 25, 2026, will receive the following early purchase bonuses: Wraith Charm, Peony Hair Ornament (Red)/Peony Hair Ornament (Blue), and Kimono (Red)/Kimono (Black).

FATAL FRAME II: Crimson Butterfly REMAKE is now available on PlayStation®5, Nintendo Switch™ 2, Xbox Series X|S, and Windows PC via Steam®. The game features Japanese and English voiceovers, with text available in Japanese, English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish.
