Kadokawa Games announced Root Letter, a mystery adventure game, for PlayStation 4 and PS Vita during its fall media briefing today. It’s due out worldwide in spring 2016.
Root Letter is the first entry in the publisher’s new series of mystery games. It’s a youth mystery adventure set in Shimane Prefecture and features both adventure and simulation parts. Mino Taro, the Love Plus character designer that left Konami in March, is handling character designs and planning. The scenario is being handled by Dario Fuji, and the music is by Takashi Nitta.
VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "A recent piece of news doing the rounds revealed the PlayStation Vita’s top 10 selling games in the United States of America, and it makes for some grim reading. While Uncharted: Golden Abyss rightfully tops the list, it only managed to shift a little more than 400k copies in the States, which is low by the series’ standards and paints a dire picture overall given that it's above all other AAA titles on the list, including Assassin’s Creed III: Liberation, Call of Duty: Black Ops Declassified, and Ki llzone Mercenary (although it’s worth noting that this top 10 doesn’t include any bundled software, otherwise Borderlands 2 would be at the top and Call of Duty at #2)."
I would think Uncharted Abyss and Killzone Mercenaries should be included in the list.
Today, during an event hosted in Tokyo, Kadokawa games announced a Hollywood film adaptation of its recent visual novel Root Letter.
