Touhou Luna Nights – PS4/PS5 Announcement Trailer

Touhou Luna Nights Gameplay
Unlike the original games, which were primarily bullet hell games, this one is instead a Meotroidvania game, with a focus on exploration and action. Players must explore a large map, all while killing enemies and going through platforming sections. As with most Metroidvania games, the player will also have to face boss enemies now and then.
The player's character has both an HP bar and an MP bar. HP bars, like in all games, signify the player's life. This goes down when they get hit, and they die when it reaches 0. As for the MP bar, this will go down whenever the player uses the character's powers. The MP bar regenerates, but the HP bar does not.
There are two ways to quickly recover either of these. The first is by finding vending machines, which are scattered throughout the map. The second is through a feature that is carried over from the original Touhou games: Grazing. As with most games, the player character has a hitbox. If an attack hits the edge of the player's hitbox, it is counted as a Graze. When that happens, the player's HP and MP will replenish.
Throughout their travels, the player will receive gold and experience points. Gold is used for upgrades such as empowered abilities, better weapons, and more. Experience points, on the other hand, will level the character and improve their stats.
Touhou Luna Nights Story
The player takes control of Sakuya Izayoi, the head made of Gensokyo's Scarlet Devil Mansion. Sakuya finds herself in a parallel universe, one that resembles the Mansion. Sakuya must make her way through this Mansion, and either escape or destroy it.
