You can take a look at the pototype for that one in the trailer below. Pre-orders will open in summer 2020.
If you’re unfamiliar with Steins;Gate, it’s the most popular sub-series of the Science Adventure franchise originally developed by 5pb with a debut in 2009 for Xbox 360.
It has then expanded with new platforms, games, fan disks, anime, manga, and more, becoming one of the most well-known visual novel series of all time.
It’ll be interesting to see the effects a worldwide-targeting TV series will have on this already popular franchise.
