Initially released in Japan in February 2022, Heaven Burns Red quickly gained recognition, even earning the prestigious "Best Game" award at the Google Play Best of 2022 awards. The game's compelling story is masterfully crafted by Jun Maeda, renowned for his work on emotionally charged titles like Clannad and Little Busters!
Where Does the English Version Begin?

Big Operation U140; Tiny Teardrops; Forgotten Memories; Summer, Swimsuits, and Tropical Festivals!; My Dear Little Hero; The Oracle and the White Lily; and The Friend From That Day.
