After 24 years, ZUN released a remake of Touhou Koumakyou and published an address to fans in Russian
The classic bullet hell returns in the form of Touhou Koumakyou: New Classic - The Embodiment of Scarlet Devil.
In September, the project Touhou Koumakyou: New Classic - The Embodiment of Scarlet Devil was released on PC via Steam, as well as on PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch consoles.
This is a remake of the classic "Touhou Koumakyou - the Embodiment of Scarlet Devil", which was distributed in 2002. The project was recreated under the guidance of its original creator ZUN.
The developers published an address to fans on Steam. It is also available in Russian — the authors talked about the project and highlighted improvements:
This is a vertical 2D shmup (shoot 'em up) where you need to advance while dodging exquisite danmaku. Play as the shrine maiden Reimu or the magician Marisa and resolve the incident that has engulfed Gensokyo. Clear your path by dodging danmaku that fills the entire screen. In addition to increased resolution, the pixel art has been redrawn, and all music tracks have been rearranged by ZUN himself. Furthermore, a new mode has been added where you can play with an infinite number of lives.
The page for Touhou Koumakyou: New Classic - The Embodiment of Scarlet Devil on Steam is available at the following link. The initial reviews for the project are "overwhelmingly positive" — a rating of 99%.
The developers noted that they will give buyers the Classic version, but it is only available in Japanese.
