Anime Expo 2017 - Aksys Games Otome Announcements


Another Anime Expo is currently underway and just like last year, Aksys has announced more otomes to release in English!! All are estimated to release sometime in 2018, and the 3 new franchises all have a mystery theme ww

Code: Realize ~Banquet of Rainbows~ 
(Code: Realize ~Saikou no Hanataba~)

Considering how popular Code: Realize is getting in Japan and in the West, it doesn't surprise me that they decided to localize the ps4 port lol. The port includes both the original game and the fandisc Future Blessings that was announced last year. The fandisc will still be releasing on the vita by itself, but if you get this port it's 2 games for the price of 1. ouob Similar to Hakuouki's ps3 eng port.

7'sCarlet

The heroine's friend invites her to this club called Okunezato, and the group takes a trip to the same village the heroine's older brother vanished at a year prior. The goal is to solve the mystery of her brother's disappearance. I don't know much about the game's story, but I heard it's a great game and it's definitely one I want to play eventually!

Psychedelica of the Black Butterfly
(Kokuchou no Psychedelica)

I'm excited for the Psychedelica games to be coming West because it really deserves it! The heroine Beniyuri (who's voiced btw!) wakes up inside a mansion without her memories. She gets chased by a monster and eventually runs into other guys who are in the same predicament as her. They work together to protect themselves from the monsters and to figure out a way to escape and retrieve their lost memories.

I've only played/seen a little bit of it, but already I'm in love with it. Hopefully I'll get to play the full game someday. From what I heard, it's a game you'll need tissues for :'D

Psychedelica of the Ashen Hawks
(Haitaka no Psychedelica)

Haitaka isn't a direct sequel to Black Butterfly, but it does reference things from the first game apparently. It takes place in a medieval-like town with two clans; Wolf and Hawk. Our heroine from the wolf clan goes undercover as Jed to avoid being persecuted as a cursed red-eyed witch. She's tasked with a mission, and uncovers secrets along the way. Like Beniyuri, Jed is voiced as well! I haven't played this game yet either but again I'd love to eventually.

Also I have no clue what the context for these are, but please listen to these bgm tracks: [x] [x] [x] [x]

A simple and non-spoiler summary of both Psychedelica games can be found here.

Bad Apple Wars

At the panel, BAW's official release date was announced: September 29, 2017. Apparently Aksys plans to have a Limited Edition as well, so I'm curious what that will be.
