Touhou Danmaku Kagura: Phantasia Lost reveals PS4 port and more Toby Fox x ZUN music

Touhou Danmaku Kagura: Phantasia Lost

Publisher Alliance Arts and developer Unknown X have announced a PS4 port for Touhou Project rhythm game Touhou Danmaku Kagura: Phantasia Lost.

Touhou Danmaku Kagura: Phantasia Lost is coming to PS4 on April 16th worldwide.

The Touhou rhythm game was originally released for Windows PC (via Steam) back in February 2024 and for Switch in September 2024.

Also announced today was a second multi-song collaboration from composers Toby Fox (Undertale) and ZUN (Touhou Project), as well as a new song DLC pack that launches today on PC.

“As always, having ZUN-san make a cover of one of my songs is a dream come true… What!? I have to make a song, too!?” said Toby Fox in a press release. “This time I took the original Megalovania and did bone-lengthening surgery on it to transform it into a cover of Necrofantasia. People might call it lazy, but it is pretty cool. … You know, just like Sans or Yukari. So you can’t complain. By the way, this has nothing to do with the song… But personally, I was really concerned about Sans, a male character, showing up in the female-dominated world of Touhou. Therefore, I made him wear girl’s clothing. Thanks everyone. (Hey! That didn’t fix anything!)”

Undertale lead artist Temmie Chang added, “The song was really cool and gave me a lot of energy and a feeling of nostalgia to a time that’s passed, but meant much to me. It was fun to draw for this while listening to it on loop. I’m really happy I was able to draw each of these illustrations. If you were to tell a baby Tem that she’d get to draw something for ZUN one day, I think her heart would’ve stopped. Thank you for the opportunity! The Yukari Sans drawing is my favorite drawing I’ve ever drawn.”

Here’s a rundown on the new details, plus a trailer and gameplay of the new songs:

Alongside ten new songs in the sixth DLC song pack, witness a legendary crossover event where composers Toby Fox and ZUN arrange each other’s songs. Toby Fox’s arrangement of Touhou Project’s “Necrofantasia” theme, and ZUN’s arrangement of Undertale’s “MEGALOVANIA” are available today. Animator, illustrator, developer, and Undertale lead artist Temmie Chang created gorgeous song cover illustrations for Toby Fox’s newest track.
