This week, multimedia developer 3Ycorporation and publisher Storytaco announced that their upcoming FMV romance simulation title ‘Five Hearts Under One Roof Season 2′ has marked 100K Wishlists ahead of its global release on PC via Steam on 10 November.
Since the FMV game saw a demo release during last month’s Steam Next Fest (still available for your perusal!), player feedback was nothing short of enthusiastic for Five Hearts—considering that the original game sold 300K units as of last month, it’s no surprise that players are really looking forward to getting back to the boarding house.
In this entry, players take on the role of protagonist Woo Yuman as they once again experience a web of complex relationships with six returning heroines—such as Mal-sook Go, Donggeuran, and Min-jung Park, along with newcomers Yunamong, Bbanggyull, and Yu-jeong Yang. Season 2 expands the series’ storytelling with enhanced choice-based mechanics, bonus content, and hidden endings, providing an immersive experience of nostalgia for a true interactive romance drama.
Per the rest of the press release:
The game introduces a first-person point-of-view FMV (Full Motion Video) format, introducing new elements such as an item system, relationship events, and a multi-branch narrative structure. Each player’s decision influences the flow of the story and the outcome of every heroine’s route, resulting in a more emotionally immersive experience than in Season 1. Five Hearts Under One Roof: Season 2 will be released as a global one-build version, supporting Korean, English, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Portuguese, Spanish, and Indonesian. The title aims to strengthen its position in the global market by expanding language options, improving video quality, and enhancing localization.
There will be two downloadable content packs, including the Official Soundtrack and Digital Artbook, which will also be available for purchase at launch. Fans can enjoy a collection of exclusive photos, behind-the-scenes content, and original theme music featuring the game’s beloved cast.
“We’ve enhanced the game based on feedback from players around the world following Steam Next Fest, building on the success of the previous title, Season 2 will set a new benchmark for the FMV romance genre.”
