Heaven Burns Red English Version on the Way

The English version of Heaven Burns Red is on its way, courtesy of publisher Yostar Games. The announcement was made at Anime Expo 2024.

Heaven Burns Red first released in 2022 to great acclaim. This free-to-play RPG stars Ruka Kayamori, a former singer now fighting for humanity against a mysterious force known as The Phage. Ruka and her fellow squad mates are capable of using powerful weapons and abilities known as Seraphim, the only thing that can stop The Phage. The game features turn-based battles where players choose a team from up to 48 characters, while the story is told through visual novel sequences.

A full trailer for the game’s English release was revealed at Anime Expo 2024. No release date has been confirmed for this release, and no platforms were announced either. However, the game released in Japan for PC, iOS and Android, so these will likely be the same platforms when it releases for a Western audience too.

Heaven Burns Red was developed by Key and Wright Flyer Studios, while Yostar Games will be publishing the English version of the game. It is the latest work from Jun Maeda, the creator of the visual novels Air and Clannad, as well as the writer for the Angel Beats anime. Heaven Burns Red also featured a crossover event with Angel Beats, where three characters from the anime made an appearance in the game.

The English version of Heaven Burns Red will be released at an unconfirmed date.
