Project Zero 2: Wii Edition, known as Zero ~Shinku no Chou~ (零 〜眞紅の蝶〜?, lit. "Zero: Deep Crimson Butterfly") in Japan, is a remake developed by Tecmo Koei Games and published by Nintendo for the Wii video game console. It is remade from Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly, originally for the PlayStation 2 and the Xbox. The game was released in Japan and Australia on June 28, 2012 and in Europe on June 29, 2012.
Deep Crimson Butterfly features several major gameplay improvements and enhancements that the original doesn't have such as
A dynamic over the shoulder third person camera angle first used in Mask of the Lunar Eclipse.
The map and layout of the game have been updated to work better with the new viewpoint.
The graphics and character models are vastly improved, and the costumes were designed with more emphasis on the back since it is constantly in the player's view.
Just like in Mask of the Lunar Eclipse, the game contains "ghost hands" which may randomly pop up when the player attempts to pick up an item. Unlike Mask of the Lunar Eclipse however the Ghost Hands can damage Mio and you are able to pull back Mio's arm to evade them.
The game now has an investigating mechanic which allows you to see many new locations and things that weren't in the original game, as well as several newly created objects that can be opened, moved, and peeped through.
Each ghost now has many new attacks and special abilities given to them.
An updated form of Blooming from the 4th game called a "Dark Return" can randomly occur which restores a ghosts health, makes their attacks do more damage, and grants them more abilities.
Several areas throughout the game are newly accessible, such as the shores of Whisper Bridge, the atrium of the Ōsaka House, a new hallway in the Kurosawa House, and the room on the top floor of the Kiryū House which could not be explored in the original.
