Today, PQube has announced that they will be releasing Steins;Gate 0 for America and Europe this year. The sequel to Steins;Gate will be available on both the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita consoles.
The original Steins;Gate, developed by 5PB and Nitroplus, was released for America in 2015. Steins;Gate is a visual novel featuring a nonlinear story exploring the themes of cause and effect. Players took the role of protagonist Rintaro Okabe, as he attempts to avoid tragedy. Rintaro must time travel many times in hopes of being successful. The game featured a number of endings based upon the choices you make interacting with friends and acquaintances alike.
The sequel will continue the time traveling adventures of Rintaro and will explore one of the alternate endings from the first title. This time, however, he will be joined by friends from Future Gadget Lab and new characters. The story will also focus on AI and the creation of something known as “Amadeus”.
A release date hasn’t been announced but science fiction and visual novel fans can look forward to Steins;Gate 0 later this year.
