Robotics;Notes, 5pb's anticipated "augmented science adventure" follow-up to "Delusional Science NVL" Chaos;Head and "hypothetical science ADV" Steins;Gate, hit Japanese consoles on June 28th. Leading up to the big day, a series of countdown videos were streamed online. See a compilation below.
It is a good time for people who love visual novels. Many publishers are taking chances on the genre. This means there aren’t just indie games or smaller titles showing up on PCs, but actual console games being treated as major releases. One of the most famous is the 5pb and Nitroplus Science Adventure line. Though, many may not know it as such. This is the name for the series that includes games like Steins;Gate and Chaos;Child. In the last few years, multiple entries in the series have been released outside of Japan, which means its the perfect time to go over this thrilling line.
5pb. has released a new trailer highlighting its newly announced Chiyomaru Studio projects.
Console visual novel Robotics;Notes will be remade for PlayStation Vita as Robotics;Notes Elite.
Looks interesting -- although that title with a semi-colon in the middle is extremely irksome.
