It also marked the glorious return of Arcade mode, always a fun mode in the fighting games, as well as the introduction of a tutorial. The PS4 version upped the resolution of the game to 1080p, a first for any Touhou game. It’s also a prologue to the next game, which I’ll write about whenever it comes out. Specifically, one that takes place after Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom, putting a reason on why she’s in the game now. It was just an excuse to give Reisen a story. Although the ‘Extra’ mode wasn’t really any such thing. Reisen was back once again, and with her she brought a new stage in Eientei, new music in the form of the ever-brilliant Invisible Full Moon, and most notably, a new mode. The most significant addition to the PS4 version was one all new character, one coming hot off the heels of her reappearance in the series. And that’s because there’s a lot of new stuff in here too. So I won’t touch on the whole game again you can, and indeed should, read my ULiL piece for that. Certainly, it’ll help you know some of what I’m on about here.īut, as I mentioned earlier, this PS4 version is not a direct port of the PC. Obviously, everything in the PC version of ULiL is as it was in the PS4 version. And I have a copy of the game to play with. That’s a massive change from the norm in itself.
But it’s worth looking at, due to a couple of small little extra features the PS4 version has, and because…well, it’s on a PS4. After plenty of build-up, it finally arrived in December 2016, making it the most recent release of a Touhou game to date. But it’d be a while before it’d be released.
The PS4 version of ULiL was first confirmed in February 2016, some time after its initial release. So there’s no need to touch on it too closely, I think.
#Touhou urban legend in limbo ps4 update#
The update is nothing more than a whole lot of balancing, though. NOTE: Since I wrote my ULiL piece, v1.40 has come out (of course it did, less than a week after I reviewed it).
