This looks stunning. Ive just started the series, on the first one on Xbox.
Looking ahead it seems I can only play number 3 on PS2, but I cant find anything about 4 in the UK.
I understand its Wii only but was it ever released in the UK? If not is the Wii region free? If so what about language options? If anyone can help id greatly appreciate it!

Sadly, Fatal Frame 4 was never released in the West. And the Wii isn't region-free. But a while ago some fans made a translation patch for FF4 so you can play the game with English subtitles on a Wii from any region. There's more info on the patch here: http://www.fatalframe4.net/

I played the game with the patch and it was really professionally done.

My Wii is modded and can play "backups" so I wonder if that would make it region free?

Edit: I just checked the link, am I right in thinking this will allow me to play Fatal Frame 4 on my PAL Wii with no need for homebrew? If so that's great, as my modded Wii is a bit of a mess and I may just restore it to factory for this.

Yep, you just need the game and the patch to play it on a US or PAL wii. No need for homebrew.

It is reverse psychology. Tell Nintendo that you don't expect or want a Western release and they'll bring it over here just to spite us!

Wow I'm a big fan of this game and I'm very happy that Tecmo will release another Fatal Frame game.. I'm excited already for this one. And oh the protagonist looks so hot!!

LightDiego4000d ago

Imagine if they release the new game with Fatal Frame 4 HD edition, just like Bayonetta edition. <3

I mean that was sort of obvious.
There was literally nothing on this franchise, then they ported Maiden of Black Water likely because it was the easier one to translate to modern devices being a Wii U title and all. And now we are getting a remaster of the 4th title. So it stands to reason that Maiden of Black Water was successful enough to start the whole process.

A remaster of the Fatal Frame 2 remake that was on Wii would be very welcome as well. That game is great. Scared the crap out of me the first time I played it as well lol.
