PARANORMASIGHT: The Mermaid’s Curse is available now for Nintendo Switch, Android, iOS, and PC via Steam. Final Weapon reviewed PARANORMASIGHT: The Mermaid’s Curse and awarded it a 4/5 score, noting that the game is a “masterclass in atmosphere, successfully blending Japanese folklore with a ‘summer horror’ aesthetic that keeps you uneasy from beginning to end.”
Previously, Square Enix launched a manga adaptation for PARANORMASIGHT: The Seven Mysteries of Honjo, dubbed PARANORMASIGHT: File 25 – Reikan Shōjō Kurosuzu Mio no Kaigō (PARANORMASIGHT: File 25 – The Chance Encounter of Psychic Girl Mio Kurosuzu), by Hinase Momoyama. The new PARANORMASIGHT manga is being serialized on Square Enix’s Manga Up! platform.
PARANORMASIGHT: File 25 – The Chance Encounter of Psychic Girl Mio Kurosuzu features an original story set after the events of the game in Tokyo’s Sumida ward. In the story, two girls investigate a legend surrounding northern Tokyo. The story was created by staff of the original game.
