Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse Gets New Story Trailer

Koei Tecmo has released a new story trailer for the upcoming Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse remaster. In the trailer, “players get a frightening preview of Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse‘s storyline, along with a closer look at some of the game’s mechanics, including Photo Mode, where players will be able to capture all of the haunting memories and moments throughout their adventure.”  The publisher also announced that the digital pre-orders for the game are now available. Those who purchase the digital copy of the game by March 22, 2023 will have the ability to download the early purchase bonus: Ruka exclusive costume “Marie Rose Outfit” from the Dead or Alive series. Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse will launch on March 9, 2023 for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Windows PC via Steam.

The full details via Koei can be seen below:

Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse takes place on a Rogetsu Isle in southern Japan, a decade after five young girls mysteriously disappeared at a moonlight festival. When two of the girls are found dead, just days apart ten years after the initial vanishing, the remaining three teenagers—Ruka Minazuki, Misaki Aso and Madoka Tsukimori—head back to the spooky island to solve the mystery of their friends’ deaths and their hazy memories. As players encounter the terrifying sprits that inhabit Rogetsu Isle, they are equipped with the Camera Obscura. This special camera can be used to not only repel the ghostly creatures, but to seal away their power through photography. Later in the game, players will also be able to use the Spirit Torch—an exceptional device that uses moonlight stored in a spirit stone to subdue spirits.
