On December 22nd, 2014, ZUN tweeted the proper announcement of the game, and linked to Twilight Frontier's new website for Touhou 14.5, thus also announcing the newest Team Shanghai Alice and Tasofro collaboration.Ī trial version was released on Decemduring the Comiket 87. Cards were handed out featuring Marisa Kirisame on a cover with references to Japanese urban myths in the background with art by Moe Harukawa, along with the text "Get your hands on the Occult Ball!" The game was announced by ZUN on November 16th, 2014, at Digital Game Expo 2014 alongside Danmaku Amanojaku Gold Rush. It is a follow-up to the Urban Legend in Limbo OST, released as a bonus CD with the first pressing edition of the PlayStation 4 version of the game.

Unlike other fighters as well, the main scenarios don't use character themes instead, there are new themes that are fixed specifically for these scenarios (listed under "Story Mode Battle Theme" in the link). Notably, Reimu Hakurei's theme is an arrangement of "Dichromatic Lotus Butterfly ~ Red and White" from Dolls in Pseudo Paradise, itself coming from Shuusou Gyoku. To add to this, U2 (with JUN providing the violin) also provided music, mainly original themes, and ZUN created two new themes one called "Battlefield of the Flower Threshold" as Kasen Ibaraki's theme and "Last Occultism ~ Esotericist of the Present World" as Sumireko Usami's. One notable use of instrument amongst these arrangers is the guitar. Unlike the previous fighters that had U2 Akiyama and ZUN for the music, this time other composers from different doujin groups come and made an official contribution, mainly to re-arrange characters' themes from previous Touhou games.
There is a total of 30 tracks in the game. The girls thought of controlling the urban legends by themselves as a necessary measure for keeping people from harm.

Urban legends have an interesting property.Īs the circulating rumors change, the anomalies will change correspondingly. They know these to be the outside world's " urban legends" (made-up stories). Since there were no real victims, the adults have come to think of them as merely children's silly talks. Unlike the youkai whose natural purpose is to attack humans, these rumors are both unsettling and impossible to discern the truth underneath. These pointless rumors have exploded, and driven the children into fear. "Somebody saw an old woman selling humans' feet." "A dog with a human's face was rummaging in the compost pile." Strange rumors are circulating in the Human Village.

The concept is controversial and is not an official doctrine of Catholicism. " Limbo" in Catholic theology is an idea that there exists a separate, less "damning" afterlife in earth for those who died in the friendship of God but still in original sin, or due to a serious matter that the deceased left pending during life, which left to the soul of said person unable to enter the heaven. An " urban legend" refers to a modern folklore story, usually false, but believed by many regardless.
With this, a recurring theme in the game is using manga-style graphics, where each introduction to an opponent shows them drawn in a manga-style way.īefore its first announcement with Twilight Frontier, there were only English words in its title. She replaces longtime artist alphes, who previously served as the artist on all of Touhou's fighting games.
One exception is the use of Moe Harukawa, artist of Forbidden Scrollery, as the game's portrait artist. The game features a similar style and gameplay to the previous fighter Hopeless Masquerade. Main articles: Gameplay and Spell Cards Concept
