Compile Heart announced five new upcoming games. Some of these titles are works in progress, so there’s the chance that developer will reveal them in the future with a different name. The five new games from Compile Heart are Todokero! Tatakae! Calamity Angels, Touhou Space Carnival, a new untitled shooting game, Madou Monogatari 4, and Death end re;Quest Code:Zion. [Thanks, Famitsu!]

During an interview with Famitsu, Naoto Tominaga (president and CEO) and Hikaru Yasui (producer) explained that Compile Heart shifted its gears to focus on a more niche market about two or three years ago. Instead of making games for the mass market, it would focus its games on a more specific audience. It will also start making them for multiple platforms, as well as make it easier to sell them to a global market. This is so that players interested in their games but couldn’t buy them before will have the opportunity to do so.

As part of its new company focus, Tominaga also explains that Compile Heart will now focus on quantity. Not everyone wants to play an AAA game or a game that has hours and hours of play time. Compile Heart will focus on releasing as many games as possible. This will also be a way to gauge consumer interest.

Then, the interview shifted to the upcoming games from Compile Heart. Todokero! Tatakae! Calamity Angels will be an RPG focusing on delivering packages. It will come out in Summer 2024 for the Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, and Windows PC. Touhou Space Carnival will be a TRPG, though there will be shooting and bullet hell elements as well. There will also be a proper shooting game, though there’s no title yet. This will come out in late Summer 2024. Madou Monogatari 4 should also come out in Summer 2024. Finally, Death end re;Quest Code: Zion will be a spin-off of the Death end re;Quest series, and it chronologically takes place between the first and second games.

Several Compile Heart games will come out in Summer 2024. More information on all of them should appear in the near future.
