Red Chat Ritual TSUMIMI TIME Release Date Overview
The psychological horror adventure game Red Chat Ritual TSUMIMI TIME release date officially landed on October 22, 2026. Developed and published by Tohakusha Inc. (with CIRCLE LINE GAMES handling publishing duties in Chinese regions), the game drops players into a tense, narrative-driven mystery where internet streaming and real-world danger collide.
Available on PC via Steam, the title has quickly caught the attention of fans looking for unique psychological thrillers blending modern livestream culture with investigation mechanics.
What is Red Chat Ritual – TSUMIMI TIME?
In this narrative adventure, your favorite streamer, Mashiro, has vanished without a trace. To uncover the truth behind her disappearance, you must tune into the livestreams of another streamer named Tsumimi.
The core gameplay loop centers on a 15-day investigation where players balance daytime detective work with nighttime stream interventions. By night, you watch Tsumimi's broadcast and interact using comments, Mega Chats, and digital gifts. How you spend your limited funds, when you choose to speak up, and when you remain silent will dramatically alter the narrative.
By day, you scour search results, fan sites, and replies to piece together clues, storing your findings in Investigation Files. Your deductions ultimately shape Tsumimi's streams and determine which of the game's multiple endings you will unlock.
