Unless your name is Resident Evil, there’s not a lot too cheer these days as a Japanese horror franchise. The perspective-swapping Siren has seemingly been left behind, Silent Hill has died a quiet death by pachinko, and the ghost-snapping Fatal Frame hasn’t had a prominent entry in years. At least there may still be a future for one of those though, if its producer has his way.

Nintendo Everything spoke to Fatal Frame producer Keisuke Kikuchi recently in relation to his work on an upcoming RPG based on the Fairy Tail Manga series, and he talked about several Koei Tecmo IP he’d like to return to, and Fatal Frame was one he had a particular idea about.

Kikuchi would love to make a new entry in the series for Nintendo’s Switch console, saying ”it’d be a ton of fun to play with the console in handheld mode and moving all around”.

While Kikuchi may be interested in that, he’s still busy elsewhere for now. It’s already a shame the current resurgence of horror in games has come along without any significant new title in series like Silent Hill, Fatal Frame, and Dead Space is a shame, so it’s heartening to see at least one of them is still very much on the minds of its creators.

The last Fatal Frame game was 2014’s Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water. It had the unfortunate distinction of being released exclusively on the ill-fated Wii U so it didn’t exactly get a healthy audience. Maybe it could yet join other Wii U exclusives in getting a Switch port of sorts?
