5pb. Announces 10 Fake Steins;Gate Spin-Off Games For April Fools’ Day
To celebrate April Fools’ Day 2019, 5pb. decided to go overboard with its Steins;Gate visual novel franchise.
The developer made a joke announcement today that the series would be getting 10 new spin-off games – with some clearly being bad parodies. For example, Rukako: A dressing boy who changes love at the bound of this world obviously rips-off YU-NO: A Girl Who Chants Love At The Bound Of This World. Likewise, Steins;Gate Grand Oredaaaaar pokes fun at the massively popular Fate/Grand Order mobile game in Japan.
Check out the full compiled list below, courtesy of Gematsu:
—Steins;Gate: Completely Innocent Wind Cutter:
—Rapsodia of the Moonlight Stud:
—Steins;Gate Grand Oredaaaaar:
—Rukako: A dressing boy who changes love at the bound of this world.:
In the meantime, Steins;Gate fans will just have to be content with actual Switch titles like Steins;Gate Elite. We’ll report back if we hear of any more hilarious April Fools’ antics from other developers today.
