Higurashi Daybreak
is a Japanese dōjin third-person shooter developed by Twilight Frontier, first released on August 13, 2006 and is based on the popular visual novel ''Higurashi no Naku Koro ni''. The game is Twilight Frontier's first attempt in making a 3D game. 07th Expansion, the creators of the original franchise, assisted in making the game — most notably, Ryukishi07, the writer of the original game, provided the script for ''Higurashi Daybreak''.

''Hirukowashi-hen'' of '' Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Rei'', released on December 31, 2006, is a novelization of this game. Als ...
