Due out on September 26th for the PS4 and PC, Blue Reflection does not appear to be just a silly “High school girls vs evil” story. The plot looks to take some pretty dark twists and turns, in stark contrast with the bright, colorful hand-drawn style visuals.
The latest details expand on high schooler Hinako Shirai’s exposure to a demonic parallel dimension known as “The Common”, and we also have some additional media below including a fresh new teaser trailer as seen below.
