Fahrenheit 213 and Aniplex have released a teaser visual for their upcoming “new indie game.” The game’s title and supported platforms are currently unknown. Further details will be revealed on April 28 at 6 pm (JST).

Fahrenheit 213 is a new studio founded by Yosuke Shiokawa, who previously worked for Square Enix Holdings and Tokyo RPG Factory before joining DELiGHTWORKS in 2016 as a creative director and creative producer for Fate/Grand Order. Shiokawa left DELiGHTWORKS in January 2022 and currently serves as the CEO of Fahrenheit 213.

The studio’s other upcoming game, a side-scrolling action RPG called TSURUGIHIME, is set to be released in 2024, with Shiokawa serving as the director.

Details about the newly announced game are scarce, but the teaser visual featuring a character sitting with their head looking down and the phrase “I wanted to save us” suggests that it may have an emotionally impactful storyline.

The development of the new game is being handled by Fahrenheit 213, with Shiokawa serving as the producer. Aniplex will act as the publisher.
