Following our discussion of mad scientists in video games, it’s time to shed light on somebirdie I referenced: Tohri Nishikikouji.
Tohri is a character from Hatoful Boyfriend’s sequel, Holiday Star, which is due out on Steam later this year. However, he’s also available in the PS4 and PS Vita releases of Hatoful Boyfriend.
I was pretty excited when I heard the news, and curious if the new content would come to Steam. Not that I object to buying another version of such a fantastic game, but I don’t have a PS4 or PS Vita yet.
Yesterday, Siliconera announced that PC players would get the Tohri route for free. However, their article left some doubt as to whether it would be released as an update for the Steam version or not.
So I went straight to the source and asked Moa Hato, the creator of Hatoful Boyfriend. She clarified that the Tohri route will not come to Steam, but will be available for free on the PC for everyone.
She hopes the new Tohri content will be available this fall. I would have liked an update or DLC for the Steam release, but a separate free release is great!
For those of you who got Hatoful Boyfriend on your PS4 or Vita, how is the Tohri storyline? And for those of you who haven’t played this game yet… what are you waiting for?

Are Hatoful Boyfriend people taking after My Little Pony fans? “somepony”
No, that’s the sort of terminology used in the game itself. Somebirdie, anybirdie, etc.
Hmph. Disgusting.
What, the term “somebirdie”? XD How so?
Taking after MLP. <.<
While it’s possible that was an influence, it’s not guaranteed.
