Today, during their panel at Anime Expo in Los Angeles, Aksys Games revealed that they will be localizing two otome titles: Illusion of Itehari -Trail- (Japanese title: Utakata no Uchronia -trail-) and Olympia Soirée: Catharsis.
ILLUSION OF ITEHARI -Trail-
Illusion of Itehari -trail- (NSW / Spring 2027) – The walled garden in the sky that has withstood centuries of isolation. Now, a new dawn breaks on this utopia of falsehoods, and with it the next chapter of the dramatic love adventure!
Illusion of Itehari -trail- is the sequel to Illusion of Itehari, featuring characters old and new brought to life with Live2D® in the familiar visual novel format. With the After Story picking up after the True Ending from the first game, and a collection of short stories, Illusion of Itehari -trail- delivers a rich narrative experience distinctive of a sequel. Itehari faces tides of turbulent change…and her people must find their own answers while the line between right and wrong is blurrier than ever before.
