To better compare, we looked for you the advantages and disadvantages of Below and the notes given by specialized sites.


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.
Limited to 30 frames per second and without any other options (such as performance and quality)


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.
Mio still lacks a bit of liveliness.
Some enemies are a bit too resistant.


The additions suit him perfectly.
The graphic improvements are superb.
Some commands are a bit harsh to execute.


Tragic and captivating story
Additional content, including a new ending that expands on the original.
Game structure rooted in the past


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
Some low-quality pre-rendered cutscenes
Aside from the Camera Obscura mechanics, the game is a relatively straightforward survival-horror experience


Very successful gloomy atmosphere
High replayability
The avoidance of ominous gazes detected strangely


Richly detailed staging, with frightening and well-crafted sets.
Good variety of ghosts and archives deepening the history of the village.
The combat system can be difficult or a bit confusing for new players.


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
30 frames per second cap on PlayStation 5 is crap
No turning off the film grain


A captivating and tragic story
Really scary
Fun side quests
Aggravated mechanic
Almost unplayable in HDR mode.
Grain filter too prominent


Fascinating and grim world.
Legitimately terrifying audiovisual design.
Taking down ghosts can be a time-consuming slog.


Fun combat mechanics.
Interesting level design that keeps the spirit of a real Edo-era village.
Lots of lore is shoved into books. Show, don't tell!


Tense, effective storytelling
Impactful additions to the Camera Obscura
Photo Mode is fun to experiment with


The story keeps you hooked from the beginning.
The mechanics for photographing spirits is very original.
Translate to English:
Translate to Spanish
It suffers from its repetitiveness in the fights.
The secondary content could have been better, especially in terms of narrative.
Atmosphere
Still interesting after more than two decades
A few explanations could be more clear


Original and fun gameplay
New areas that encourage exploration
Artistically splendid


Upgraded visuals looking better than ever
Gripping story with multiple endings
Solid performances during cutscenes
New features added


Solid and faithful story, with a good emotional impact.
Interesting and unique combat system, with the Camera Obscura once again at the center.
Good additions to make the game more modern without betraying its origins.
Performance on console not always perfect (why only 30fps ??)


High quality graphics
Excellent sound design
A generally fascinating story
Access to different outcomes that can be divisive


Today, yet another fresh combat system
Exciting and emotional story
Great voice in English and Japanese
Cool riddles that must be solved with the camera.
Some beautiful pieces of music
Strong and non-disableable film grain
Horror is underestimated
The standard difficulty is too low.
Chain reactions


Minakami is an excellent setting
Camera Obscura is superbly integrated into the game's various elements
Compelling story with a thematic thread
The controls are sluggish
The cutscenes are too rigidly put together


Outstanding sound design
Raw and suggestive narrative
The imbalance of difficulties
Technical uncertainties about the PlayStation 5


New side stories and areas improve on the original
Third person camera angle adds a lot to the tension
Performance problems can interfere with the mood


Engaging story and exploration


The storytelling is a real strong point
Particularly effective sound design
A small village, but a dense and immersive village
Boss with high HP, making battles even more frustrating.
Heaviness and rigidity that are difficult to appreciate today.


Oppressive sound atmosphere
Well-written story
Modernized gameplay
Respectful remake of the work
Long and frustrating battles
Poorly explained tutorial


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


Art direction and sound design work well to create an uneasy atmosphere
Strong storytelling across the board, even in side quests
The right amount of exploration rewards curiosity without padding
Some boss encounters are creative


An interesting story to discover
A truly beautiful graphic redesign
Filters, a good idea to vary exploration.
Way too many jumpscares
A rather slow heroine

The fights maintain the essence.
Argumentatively, it maintains the level of the original game.
The voltage component.
The ability to get angry.
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.
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).


Refreshed gameplay with a new combat system and numerous improvements for the Camera Obscura.
Graphically well-crafted in all its aspects...
Jump scares are often predictable.
note-taking
The narration
immersion
Long loading time for the Ps5 pro
Mio's lack of responsiveness
