Zakuro Motoki, sound director for 07th Expansion works, said on Twitter on Tuesday that Ryukishi07’s Higurashi: When They Cry Hou (Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Hou) game is getting a PlayStation 4 release.
The company released the Higurashi: When They Cry Hou – Ch 6 Tsumihoroboshi visual novel on Steam on June 14.
MangaGamer released the original visual novel in 2009, and has been releasing Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Hou as 14 individual chapters.
Ryūkishi07 and 07th Expansion released Higurashi: When They Cry Hou for PC in Japan in 2014 as a “thank you” to series fans (the kanji used for Hō is used in the word Hōnō, “dedication”).
