Review Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly REMAKE by NextN
An excellent visual section to bring back a classic.
Improvements in the game's storyline and its universe, while respecting everything that is original.
Improvements in the quality of life of the game, as well as translation into Spanish.
The anger of ghosts seems to be excessively random.
Limited to 30 frames per second and without any other options (such as performance and quality)

Review Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly REMAKE by Xbox-Mag
Return of one of the best survival horror games
Superb visual and sound atmosphere
Successful staging
Good battery life (around twelve hours)
Quite a few welcome secondary elements
The "fight" at the Camera Obscura has lost none of its charm.
Still a lot of back and forth
Mio still lacks a bit of liveliness.
Some enemies are a bit too resistant.

Review Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly REMAKE by Generación Xbox
The best version of the saga in my humble opinion
The additions suit him perfectly.
The graphic improvements are superb.
I would have liked the game to be localized in Latin American Spanish.
Some commands are a bit harsh to execute.

Engaging story
Clever puzzles taking advantage of the Camera Obscura new filters
New meaningful content well integrated into the original story
Multiple endings that add significant replay value
Combat can be frustrating, especially in the early game
Some low-quality pre-rendered cutscenes
Aside from the Camera Obscura mechanics, the game is a relatively straightforward survival-horror experience

Review Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly REMAKE by Pizza Fria
Extremely immersive and well-constructed atmosphere of terror.
Richly detailed staging, with frightening and well-crafted sets.
Good variety of ghosts and archives deepening the history of the village.
Absence of localization in Portuguese.
The combat system can be difficult or a bit confusing for new players.

Review Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly REMAKE by Niche Gamer
Gripping and unsettling supernatural horror story where obsessive romance and spiritualism meet
Dazzling, yet haunting visuals
This is the most fluent gameplay with the most refined controls and playability for any Fatal Frame game
Plenty of surprises for Fatal Frame II veterans, yet tastefully faithful
New mechanics and an improved Camera Obscura
Sloppy Unreal Engine 5 optimization woes
30 frames per second cap on PlayStation 5 is crap
No turning off the film grain

The rigidity of controls can be frustrating at many moments.

A very successful atmosphere

Particularly effective sound design
A small village, but a dense and immersive village
A real lack of finishing from a technical point of view.
Boss with high HP, making battles even more frustrating.
Heaviness and rigidity that are difficult to appreciate today.

Review Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly REMAKE by Complete Xbox
Core story remains intact but with added side-stories to uncover
Removing fixed camera angles kills any possibility of scares
Unnecessary remake
What?s with the farting sound during some fights?
Looks and plays like a late seventh generation console game
Clearly not the best usage of an action focus studio like Team Ninja

The technical aspect of the game.
The fights maintain the essence.
Argumentatively, it maintains the level of the original game.
The voltage component.
The aids are not very clear.
The ability to get angry.

TestingBuddies
The captivating story of the original is preserved and enriched.
More realistic graphics
Smooth movement of the characters
Scary and atmospheric soundtrack
New territories
Revised darkroom
Additional immersion thanks to the handling and hiding of spirits.
Exciting combat elements in the form of willpower and rage mode of nightmarish nightmares.
Occasional jerks
Difficult start to level up in the Camera Obscura
The hiding spots look very similar visually.
Long loading times when retrieving a backup
The balancing of new combat features at launch is not balanced and therefore presents a high potential for frustration (temporarily improved by a patch).

Too bad for this refresh rate locked at 30 fps.
