Back in February, at Yukicon, there was an important announcement I missed entirely.
There’s going to be a Hatoful Boyfriend 3!
Yes, Hatoful Boyfriend and Holiday Star are getting another sequel. Moa wrote a blog post in April explaining what the new game will be like.
Hatoful Boyfriend: MIRROR takes place in the alternate universe featured in some of the Holiday Star side stories, a mirror universe where certain important characters are still alive.
Mirror will be divided into episodes like Holiday Star was. (My guess is that we won’t be dating birds like in the original Hatoful Boyfriend, but follow a set story in in BBL and Holiday Star.) It will be a paid game, although she might make some sort of short free version, and it is planned for PC and Mac.
The Hatoful Boyfriend web series has been cancelled, but its story will be told in MIRROR.
Finally, the Japanese version is planned for this summer/fall, and she’ll begin work on the English version afterwards.
I’m really excited for this. I loved both Hatoful Boyfriend and Holiday Star, and I’m looking forward to what MIRROR will bring. I believe there’s also a manga set in the alternate universe. Maybe it’s about time I read it, as we await the third game.
I need this in my life.
I’m excited for it! Did you play Holiday Star?
I did, and the first one too. 🙂 Can’t wait for the third installment.
I’m excited. 😀 Have you read any of the manga? So far I’ve only read the one set in Anghel’s alternate universe, Absolute Zero.
