Steins;Gate Elite
Speaking of a niche audience, it’s no secret that Japanese visual novel and anime-stylized games thrive on the PS Vita, too. Steins;Gate Elite hopes to satisfy that market’s thirst for more content when it releases in 2018. The title will incorporate actual cutscenes from the show of the same name into its narrative to immerse the player further and will add routes previously not seen before. The entire game will be fully animated, meaning characters and action will move onscreen in tandem with the script, and voiced dialogue from the show will be included for additional effect.
From what fans have learned so far, Steins;Gate Elite hopes to get the concept of a visual novel and elevate it to something much more than what it currently is. PS Vita fans who may have been hesitant to check out the genre for fear that it would be too text-heavy and reliant on dialogue should have confidence knowing Steins;Gate Elite incorporates real-time movement and animations to make it just as engaging as playing your favorite anime. Given the fact that the show is one of the most heavily praised works of fiction on MyAnimeList, this game doesn’t seem like it’ll disappoint.
