Japanese indie developer Tatamibeya and publisher Amata Games have announced that their first-person adventure, Nostalgic Train<\/em>, will release for the PlayStation 4<\/a> and PlayStation 5<\/a> on Thursday, November 25th. The game first launched on Steam in 2018, and recently released on the Nintendo Switch.<\/p>\n

Players will walk around the Japanese countryside to solve the mystery of their own existence as well as the mystery of the missing people of Natsugiri. The game contains a story mode as well as a \u201cfree\u201d mode that allows players to explore Natsugiri however they like.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe game attracted a great deal of attention on Steam through the Japanese indie game creator Tatamibeya in June 2018 for the quality of its beautifully recreated CGs of the nostalgic Japanese countryside,\u201d reads a press release. \u201cIt was recommended by the 22nd Japan Media Arts Screening Committee of the Agency for Cultural Affairs. Also, the Nintendo Switch version of Nostalgic Train<\/em>, which was ported by Amata and released in August of this year, has been very well received.\u201d<\/p>\n

A synopsis reads:<\/p>\n

\n

I was so dazzled that I could barely open my eyes. The singing of the cicadas and the humid air surrounded me. The air is filled with the faint smell of the sea breeze.<\/em><\/p>\n

I\u2019m sitting on a wooden bench in an old station building.<\/em><\/p>\n

Where is this place? And\u2026 what am I doing here?<\/em><\/p>\n

A nostalgic countryside.<\/em><\/p>\n

A station marked \u2018Natsugiri.\u2019<\/em><\/p>\n

A single-track railroad.<\/em><\/p>\n

As if stepping out of the purest of white light, I woke up here, my memories gone. I could not find anyone in this strange place\u2026<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

A new trailer has yet to be released. In the meantime, you can watch the Switch launch trailer from August below.<\/p>\n
