After going to a late summer fireworks festival together in the mountains, the girls Yui and Haru got lost on the way back home. When they let go of each other's hands, they got separated. Mustering up their courage, the two girls explore an ominous night town which is completely different during daytime and where someone is lurking in the shadows. As the story advances, the player will switch between the perspectives of Yui and Haru. The actions, decisions and information you get from playing as one will impact the story of the other.
I was so happy to see Midnight Shadows would be arriving on PS4, because the experience feels so much richer and more immersive on the big screen compared to the Vita. The Yomawari games use a cutesy, chibi art style to render the characters, but everything surrounding them has a deep, haunting beauty to it that instantly tells you this world is anything but cute. Environments and buildings are rendered in dark, rich colors, shadows and darkness paint every corner of the screen, and there will be blood.
