Cirno's house got destroyed by the Three Fairies of Light, and since Cirno took it as a declaration of war, she's going to punish them.
The game features the freezing mechanic. Cirno can freeze bullets that come into contact with ice used by her, and frozen bullets that touch other bullets will freeze them too. The bomb system has also been revamped into the Perfect Freeze mechanic, allowing all bullets on the screen to be frozen.
