The release date and contents of the North American Nintendo Switch™ edition of Koumajou Remilia: Scarlet Symphony have yet to be confirmed, but Limited Run Games is planning to announce those details at a later date.
 
Koumajou Remilia: Scarlet Symphony is a 2D side-scrolling action game that was released globally on Nintendo Switch™ and Steam July 28th, 2022, featuring characters from the Touhou Project. 
 
The game centers around main character Reimu Hakurei, who is heading to the Scarlet Devil Castle to find the cause of a mysterious event plaguing Gensokyo. This year-old game is still beloved by fans for the dark atmosphere and character design of popular illustrator Banpai Akira (晩杯あきら), along with audio that matches the mood and the complete experience of the game.
 
Newer versions of Koumajou Remilia: Scarlet Symphony have improved upon the quality of the original version by adding HD graphics and various other elements to the game. It also includes English, Korean, Japanese, Chinese, and French, and is now fully-voiced by popular voice actresses, a feature that was not in the original.

In addition to this, there are a whole host of features for players to enjoy, including various achievements, unlockables to collect, and “Extra Easy” mode, which will help those unfamiliar with this style of action game reach the ending.


The announcement of this year’s North American Nintendo Switch™ edition of Koumajou Remilia: Scarlet Symphony is only expected to build the fanbase of the game following its global 2022 launch.
