Aniplex has announced a console port of Mahoutsukai no Yoru: Witch on the Holy Night (魔法使いの夜). It is due out in 2022 for PS4 and Nintendo Switch. The port version will be fully voiced and supports full HD resolution.

Mahoutsukai no Yoru: Witch on the Holy Night is a visual novel created by TYPE-MOON that was released on PC in April of 2012. The game takes place in the late 1980s in a small city called Misaki. In the city, there’s a rumor going around about two witches living in a mansion at the top of a hill.

The main protagonist is a high school student named Soujuurou Shizuki who just moved to the area from the countryside. Since he has just arrived in the city, he feels as if he’s time traveled and is trying his best to adjust to modern society. One day, Soujuurou meets Aoko Aozaki and finds himself involved with modern-day witches.

The game’s scenario was created by Kinoko Nasu, character design was handled by Hirokazu Koyama, and the script was written by Tsukurimonoji.

An anime movie adaptation of Mahoutsukai no Yoru: Witch on the Holy Night was recently announced in Japan as well, with animation being handled by ufotable, the animation studio behind Demon Slayer (related article).
