Robotics;Notes Elite
Visual Novels Coming in 2020
The Science Adventure from developer 5pb series of visual novels are some of the most well known in the genre and are a fantastic place to start if you are a newcomer to these kinds of games. They usually have a gameplay gimmick along the lines of checking your phone or tablet, and the choices you make will affect the ending you receive.
Steins;Gate is perhaps the most well known of the series, with multiple spinoffs and a remake in the form of Steins;Gate Elite. In recent years other entries like Chaos;Head and Chaos;Child have come west, and in 2020 Robotic;Notes is also getting the Elite treatment and a Western release.
Much like Steins;Gate Elite, this means retextured character models and the addition of new animated scenes to accompany the text of the original game.
Robotics;Notes tells the story of Kaito Yashio and the various members of his school’s robotics club. What initially begins as the clubs attempts to create a working life-sized Gundam becomes something much darker and more complex, in the way that these games always do.
