And Playism aims for our hearts

Japanese indie games distributor Playismscoredthe rights to one of theTouhoutitles last year, putting us one step closer to a possible English-language adaptation of the popular doujin series. That was the speculation, anyway. And indeed, it’s happening: the bullet hell shooterTouhou 14: Double Dealing Characterwill see a localized release on Playism EN “sooner than you think.”

With such a vast, varied catalog of works for Playism to draw from,Double Dealing Characterwill hopefully be the first of many moreTouhoulocalizations to come. Wonderful news for folks who have perhaps heard the series’ name before in passing but not yet glimpsed into the madness.
