Vengeance is rising, and the clock is ticking fast.

Peace had returned to the Land of Illusions after the defeat of Vladrouge Scarlet, or so it seems. Beneath the autumn leaves of the Amber Woods, the Gensokyo Socialite Order is brewing a new curse that will turn your friends into enemies. A toxic substance known as glohm is infecting humanoids and youkai-borns alike, shutting their hearts and forcing them into isolation.

As the Federal Kingdom of Gensokyo is preparing to celebrate its first Autumn Equinox Festival, someone is committed to sweeping away the doom before the glohm takes hold of Kozankyo. Take control of Chief Justice Reimu Hakurei, or any of the queens of the three kingdoms from Marisa, Yukari, and Kaguya. You'll have to navigate the shifting boundaries of Mayohiga to the serpentine flames of Yumemura to find the origin of the glohm. When the sun sets, everyone must lock, load, and graze their way into beating the glohm.

• A Bold New Direction: Everything is optimized with a brand new engine for the smoothest danmaku action yet.

• Four Playable Characters: Take flight as Chief Justice Reimu Hakurei, Marisa Kirisame of the Federal Kingdom of Gensokyo, Yukari Yakumo of the Democratic Kingdom of Gensokyo, or Kaguya Houraisan of the People's Kingdom of Gensokyo.

• Master the Mystic Arts: Unleash iconic spell cards like Fantasy Seal or Master Spark to clear the screen of enemy fire.

• All new bosses: Battle through 8 intense stages and face off against 10+ unique bosses, including new characters and familiar faces, including the clumsy mail-tengu Kotori Tegami, the dual snake-sirens Saika and Ryuuko, and the enigmatic Berenice Grieg.

• New scrolling stages: Navigate a dark new plot where a corruptive substance is shutting the hearts of Gensokyo's citizens. Can you break the curse before the festival begins? Watch as the stage scrolls more than just vertically - the action will turn horizontal in a few!
