Today the Witch Hunt has announced the release of their full translation of the seventh episode in the Umineko no Naku Koro ni game series, ‘Requiem of the Golden Witch’. The release comes shortly before the release of the eighth episode, which is planned for this winter Comiket and generally assumed to be the final chapter of the second story arc Chiru.

The Witch Hunt has kept a track record of finishing their translations before the release of the next episode, so as to give fans a chance to read the game before discussions of the next chapter become widespread. No plans have been announced concerning the release schedule of the episode 8. The translation is released as a Windows installer, a Mac installer and a cross-platform zip archive. It is compatible both with the DVD version and the download version by HOBIBOX.
