Koei Tecmo and Gust released new details for Blue Reflection: Second Light! This includes the Kokorotope area, new character Shiho Kasuga and RefleNavi. Check it out below, courtesy of Gematsu:
■ Japanese Box Art
■ World
One day, a new place named “Kokorotope” appeared in this world where there was only a school and water. This mysterious space was filled with randomly placed objects from the real world.
Could this place also contain clues about this world? A mysterious light shined while exploring Kokorotope…
It was a “Memory Fragment.”
Once Ao and company touched it, Kokoro Utsubo’s memories began to return little by little.
Apparently, the Memory Fragments in this space are related to Kokoro’s memories.
When she remembered something important, a new girl who Kokoro calls Shiho appears in this world as if in response to her memories returning.
What is Kokorotope? And just what is this world? It all continues to remain a mystery to the girls.
■ Character
Shiho Kasuga (voiced by Emiri Suyama)
“Are we trapped?”
A girl who appeared in front of Ao and company after a certain event. She is a kind and serious honors student. She looks out for others and is good at housework. While she also lost her memory, Kokoro seems to know her.
Shiho Kasuga is one of the key persons connecting the stories of Blue Reflection Sun (iOS, Android) and Blue ReflectioN: Second Light.
With new members joining the fray, the school will become livelier. With school remodeling projects, cooperative cooking, and more, there is a lot of fun to be had, even if you have lost your memory.
■ Systems
Kokorotope
A mysterious space that exists outside the school. Ao and company named it as it appears to be a biotope of the mind.
By exploring Kokorotope, you can get items necessary for the girls’ livelihoods such as ingredients and crafting materials.
Memory Fragments are also scattered throughout Kokorotope. By collecting these, you acn get a glimpse of some of the girls’ forgotten memories, which will act as a key to solving the world’s mysteries.
Kokorotope also has various obstacles and monsters. A powerful boss monster awaits in its depths, and stands against the girls who are trying to solve the mysteries of this world.
RefleNavi
On the day that Kokorotope appeared, someone named “RefleNavi” suddenly appeared in the girls’ smartphone group message.
RefleNavi gives Ao and company the information they need to live, but also has a will of its own, willfully listening to the girls’ conversations and warning them not to go near Kokorotope, which is somewhat eerie.
It also helps Ao and company out when they have troubles living in this world, and informs them about Kokorotope, but its purpose and identity are shrouded in mystery.
Blue Reflection: Second Light releases on October 21st in Japan for PS4 and Switch. Lastly, a Steam version and western release are planned for a later date. Stay tuned at Final Weapon for the latest Japanese gaming news and updates!
