One of the best horror series of all time. Releasing the entire PS2 trilogy would be a dream come true. These games are stuck on old dying hardware but the forth and fifth entry are available on PC. This would be the perfect oportunity to bring the whole series to a modern platform and preserving it forever.

It is genuinely tragic that the PS2-era Fatal Frame games have not been re-released/re-mastered. These games are extremely worthy of preservation. They shouldn't be forgotten. Fatal Frame 2, in particular, is widely considered one of the greatest horror games of the era and possibly all-time. Please bring it to PC and preserve it!
Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly (2003) – A Haunting Bond Story & Memory: Arguably the most beloved in the series, you control Mio, who searches for her lost twin sister Mayu in a haunted village that exists in a time loop. The emotional core—sisterly love—makes every ghost encounter more personal. The crimson butterflies and tragic ritual themes stay with you long after the game ends. Why It Belongs on GOG: With its emotional storytelling, terrifying encounters, and stunningly eerie environments, this game is a standout in horror history. It needs to be preserved on GOG to ensure it’s never forgotten—DRM-free and fully accessible.
