Aniplex of America and TYPE-MOON have announced that physical limited edition pre-orders for the upcoming Western release of Tsukihime -A piece of blue glass moon- Limited Edition are now available via retailers like Amazon.
UPDATE: Pre-orders are now available via Best Buy and GameStop Canada.
Costing $79.99 on both PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch, the game is included alongside the Special material book “TSUKIHIME MaterialⅠ-material of blue glass moon-“ and a collector’s box.
Tsukihime was the first visual novel developed by TYPE-MOON, making it the very first game written by Kinoko Nasu of Fate/Stay Night fame in partnership with illustrator Takashi Takeuchi. Though the title shares much of its in-universe lore with other Nasu works, its focus was instead on serial killing cases and vampires.
While the original game came out in 2000, a remake was announced back in 2008, but its first part, A piece of blue glass moon, was only released in Japan in 2021. The remake covers the Near Side of the Moon, leaving the Kohaku, Hisui, Akiha, and teased Satsuki routes to the upcoming second part, The other side of red garden.
On the other hand, this upcoming first release will feature the Arcueid and Ciel routes, Moon Princess and Midnight Rainbow, respectively.
