Shikai Prologue Movie Arrives Ahead of Winter Switch and PS5 Launch
The staff behind Science Adventure titles are applying that production structure to an occult story, and the prologue movie is the first look at how the game presents one ghost story as fragments that resolve into a single apparition.

MAGES. released a prologue movie for Shikai, an occult adventure game for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5 due this winter. The video centers on "The House with the Red Roof," the ghost story the game is built around, and the opening theme sung by Kanako Ito. Ryo Yasumoto, who wrote STEINS;GATE 0, handles the scenario, and Takeshi Abo of the STEINS;GATE series handles music.
Part of the opening theme's lyrics is withheld in the prologue movie. MAGES. says the full version will come in an opening movie at a later date. The game's premise rests on fragmentary words around the ghost story, phrases the video presents with no visible connection until they form one apparition.
The staff list puts the project in the lineage of the Science Adventure series: Ryo Yasumoto writes the scenario after STEINS;GATE 0, and Takeshi Abo, whose music runs through the STEINS;GATE series, scores it. Kanako Ito, a recurring vocalist on those theme songs, sings the opening theme.
