Indie developer and publisher BeXide Inc has officially announced the release of The Fox’s Way Home on the Nintendo Switch. Additionally, an original soundtrack inspired by traditional Japanese ceremonial dance, Kagura, will be released on streaming platforms starting January 16, 2025. Check out the Nintendo Switch Launch Trailer for The Fox’s Way Home below:
The Fox’s Way Home invites you to unravel a sultry and mysterious narrative centered around a fox shrine maiden. Tasked with completing eight consecutive dances, you must stay vigilant as a mischievous apparition seeks to disrupt the ritual by imitating the maiden. With each performance, the challenge lies in discerning the real fox maiden from the imposter. The gameplay tests observation and intuition, requiring you to spot anomalies in appearance, movements, or the surrounding scenery.
When a suspicious element is detected, you can declare it “fake” before the timer expires. If no irregularities are found, you must determine whether the maiden is “true” or watch the dance unfold. Success depends on resisting the charms of the enigmatic fox maiden and maintaining sharp focus.
Renowned voice actress Maaya Uchida, known for roles in Bocchi the Rock and Urusei Yatsura, brings the fox maiden to life with her expressive performance. The Nintendo Switch version enhances the experience by allowing you to witness the intricate rituals on a large TV screen or enjoy the game’s mystique in handheld mode.
To complement the game’s release, BeXide Inc is launching the Fox’s Way Home Original Soundtrack by B-SiDE. Featuring five tracks, the album blends traditional Japanese musical elements with the spiritual essence of Kagura dances, offering a meditative and immersive listening experience.
To celebrate The Fox’s Way Home’s Nintendo Switch release, the developer is offering a 20% launch discount for a limited time. You can avail of the discount until January 22, 2025, through the game’s official Nintendo eStore page. Apart from Nintendo Switch, it is also available on PC via Steam where you can also purchase the exclusive soundtrack for the game. You should know that the game only offers Japanese language for in-game character voices.
