To All Players of SHINONOME: Rainy Night Manor
Thank you very much for your continued support of SHINONOME: Rainy Night Manor.
On March 25, 2026, SHINONOME ABYSS: The Maiden Exorcist will be released by KADOKAWA Game Linkage.
We would like to provide information regarding its relationship to SHINONOME and the differences in content between the two titles.
About This Title
While SHINONOME ABYSS is based on SHINONOME, it is a standalone new title built around the core mechanic of player transformation. With expanded content, including new enemies, items, and dungeons, it offers a more active style of play and is not a direct sequel to SHINONOME.
For those who already own SHINONOME, please note that while the two titles share many elements, including dungeon structure and the core gameplay loop, the addition of these new features has also brought overall gameplay adjustments and changes. As a result, even the shared elements can be enjoyed with a greater sense of exhilaration than in SHINONOME.
New Features Unique to SHINONOME ABYSS
▽ New player mechanic: Transformation (including related new actions)
▽ New enemies: 8 types
▽ New items (weapons): 5 types
▽ Dungeons: 12 types
▽ New traps, new backgrounds, and visual effects
▽ Overall gameplay adjustments and changes accompanying these new features
Note: The unique features of SHINONOME ABYSS listed above will not be added to SHINONOME, even in future updates.
To avoid spoilers, details are provided in terms of quantity only.
Comparison of the Two Titles
SHINONOME ABYSS
An “active” style of play. By making use of transformation for dramatic turnarounds and wielding powerful items, players can enjoy an even greater sense of exhilaration through its more action-oriented gameplay. As noted above, this title also includes multiple features exclusive to SHINONOME ABYSS.
SHINONOME
A “calm” style of play. Players can enjoy puzzle-like tension by managing limited resources and overcoming challenges through observation and strategy.
In addition, SHINONOME will continue to be operated and updated as it moves toward its full release.
We hope this helps you better understand the differences between the two titles, and we sincerely hope you will give it a try.
Thank you very much for your continued support of SHINONOME.
