{"product_id":"utawarerumono-mask-of-deception-playstation-4","title":"Utawarerumono: Mask Of Deception - Playstation 4","description":"\u003cp\u003eUtawarerumono: Mask of Deception for the PlayStation 4 is a rich and deeply absorbing hybrid of visual novel and tactical RPG — a slow-burn epic that earns its every dramatic payoff across 40 to 50 hours of story. In a world where humanity as we know it no longer exists, a man wakes up in a snowy forest with no memory of who he is. He is found by Kuon — a strikingly capable young woman with cat-like ears and a tail — who names him Haku and takes him on a journey toward the mighty nation of Yamato. What begins as a warm, often hilarious slice-of-life adventure gradually reveals political intrigue, ancient mysteries, and a darkness beneath the surface that the leisurely opening chapters conceal with remarkable patience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe vast majority of the experience unfolds as a visual novel — fully voiced in Japanese, with gorgeous artwork and character portraits illustrating every scene. When combat does arrive, it takes the form of turn-based SRPG battles on isometric grids, with an Attack Chain system that rewards timing and coordination. Combat is engaging but infrequent — buyers who come expecting a primarily action-driven game should know this is first and foremost a reading experience. The story is told in its powerful original Japanese voice with English subtitles throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMask of Deception is the first part of a two-game story and directly sets up Mask of Truth. The two games were released simultaneously in North America. The franchise began as a PC visual novel in 2002 and has since spawned manga, anime, and multiple game adaptations. Published by Atlus in North America on May 23, 2017, this is the Launch Edition, which includes a bonus 50-page art book and a collector's slip case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJapanese Title:\u003c\/strong\u003e うたわれるもの 偽りの仮面 (Utawarerumono: Itsuwari no Kamen \/ Mask of Deception)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/strong\u003e English subtitles \/ Japanese voice\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRating:\u003c\/strong\u003e M (Mature 17+)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlatform:\u003c\/strong\u003e PlayStation 4\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Visual Novel \/ Tactical RPG\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 player\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeveloper:\u003c\/strong\u003e Aquaplus\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Atlus\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Year:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2017 (North American release: May 23, 2017)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLaunch Edition — includes game, bonus 50-page art book, and collector's slip case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOnly multiple item orders that combine to $120 or more get free shipping.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pre-Owned","offers":[{"title":"“Launch Edition” - Game \u0026 Box + Outer Box + Pillowcase - VG+ (Outerbox has wear\/ Pillowcase looks New)","offer_id":42945115422805,"sku":null,"price":84.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Standard Edition - Game \u0026 Box","offer_id":42945115455573,"sku":null,"price":64.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0565\/7673\/7365\/files\/85DB2AD3-77DD-4B90-9F5C-2F836C78DCC9.jpg?v=1788495641","url":"https:\/\/hifilofi.shop\/products\/utawarerumono-mask-of-deception-playstation-4","provider":"HiFi LoFi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
