Few things bring me more joy than writing about things that J-List is known for. We’ve had an intimate relationship with the original Steins;Gate visual novel, and now we’re cheering for the release of its reboot. Ready your pockets and clear your schedule — MAGES and Nitroplus will launch the STEINS;GATE RE:BOOT on August 20! The global release will see the acclaimed visual novel make its way to the Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC (via Steam). However, if you’re reading this from Japan, note that the Steam, PlayStation 4, and Xbox Series X/S versions are digital versions.
J-List is a corporation registered in Japan, and like every corporation, we have to count inventory when our fiscal year ends. But we hate counting stock, and would much rather sell it to you — so let’s have a sale! Through May 31st, get 15% off all shipping-from-Japan products automatically. Start browsing here!
Reservations for the remake are already available on the Steins;Gate website. Depending on where you buy a copy (Japan customers only), you’ll get some sweet merch like tapestries, acrylic stands, clear files, and cloth posters.
STEINS;GATE RE:BOOT and Franchise Deets
MAGES and Nitroplus had previously announced that STEINS;GATE RE:BOOT will have Chinese (traditional and simplified), English, and Japanese subtitles. The remake will also feature new content and updated graphics.
MAGES and Nitroplus released the original Steins;Gate visual novel on Xbox 360 in October 2009. JAST USA released the visual novel in North America. Peter-senpai oversaw that release! Since then, the visual novel received adaptations into a manga, several OVAs, a theatrical film, and an anime adaptation from White Fox Studios. Several Steins;Gate spin-off games, such as Steins;Gate 0, are available. 5pb released the first remake, Steins;Gate Elite, in September 2018. The 2018 remake features fully animated scenes taken from the anime. It also contains additional animated content made by White Fox.
