If you haven't already played Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake, there's a demo you can check out on the Switch 2 eShop right now. The game's save data will also carry over after you've experienced the "early stages of the game".
We've also got a review up on Nintendo Life. The game's got great atmosphere and thankfully hits more than it misses, even if there are some performance problems.
"Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly Remake is a solid, but uneven remake that nonetheless stands as a strong reminder of the cool ideas that this franchise brings to the table."
