Fatal Frame II continues Tecmo's distinct take on survival horror with a new storyline featuring twin sisters who stumble upon an ancient evil. Rather than take place within a haunted mansion as in the original game, Fatal Frame II has players exploring an entire village: the sisters' hometown now mysteriously abandoned. The terror begins when Mio Amakura's sibling, Mayu, spots a red butterfly glowing in the sky above them.

The strangely hypnotic image compels young Mayu to follow it into a dark forest and secret village where the supernatural events will unfold. Once again combat in Fatal Frame II is accomplished using an antique camera with the power to capture malevolent spirits after wearing them down with flashes. As players take pictures of the poltergeists lurking within the village, various details will emerge that shed a disturbing light on the dark energy pervading the locale.

Features:
* Sequel to 2002's survival-horror title offers new, larger environments to explore
* Follow the haunting storyline of two twin sisters who stumble upon an abandoned village
* Use an antique camera to ensnare ghosts and evil spirits
