Best Switch Games in February 2019
Steins;Gate Elite (Feb. 19)
The original Steins;Gate still stands out as one of the best visual novels you can get right now, and Steins;Gate Elite is essentially a retelling of that same story, but with a brand new style of presentation.
As fans of the franchise might already know, Steins;Gate received an anime adaptation. With the Elite re-release, this version of the game will be fully animated, featuring footage from the anime series itself. The game will also feature some new animations exclusive to Elite, but for the most part, it’ll be reusing footage from the anime.
Even if you’ve already played the original game, this might still be worth a look if you never got to check out the anime series. Steins;Gate is a trippy sci-fi adventure that deals with time travel and other interesting scientific theories.
The main cast of characters are likable for the most part, and like any good visual novel worth its salt, there are several choices you can make throughout the game that will affect the outcome of the story.
