New 'sound novel' game from Sega coming to PS3!
The latest issue of Famitsu includes a few pages announcing a new upcoming Sega title for the PS3. The scans don't show much - even less to those of us who aren't fluent in Japanese - but feature some pretty exciting images.
The game, Imabikisou, seems to be a bit thin on the ground in terms of details. It is been dubbed a 'Sound novel'. Presumably this will be an interactive story, like the 'Visual novels' that are so popular in Japan (we know them as 'dating sims' over here). Judging from the scans, Imabikisou will be based more on horror than romance, with perhaps more emphasis being put on the use of sound to create atmosphere in the story. Hence 'Sound novel'?
This is all pure speculation, of course. There's not even any word on whether the game will escape Japan's borders. Be sure to check out the scans for yourself. As always, we will keep you posted.
