  2. I’m so sorry if this is obvious to everyone but me but…. Is this in English and Japanese? Or just Japanese? I have played Hakuoki on the PC but I’d love to finally be able to play on my Switch in English.

    1. Yes, the revised text they are referring to is the (English) localization. The voices of the characters will remain in Japanese. ^^

  5. Um, is this one going to be the same as the games available on steam? Also can someone recommend me the correct playing order? Google just confused me 😅. Also does anyone recommend this for people outside the fans? (Aka I’ve never played hakuoki).

  6. Do we know if this version will include the english PS3 content? I already have the PS3 and PSVita versions, so I’ll wait. But I kinda want to get it anyway because I really want the other games to be localized too…….

    1. This title will be released by EASTASIASOFT in partnership with Idea Factory/Design Factory (Japan). This ISN’T a switch release from IFI (Idea Factory International) North America/EU/UK.

      Idea Factory International has announced two titles for 2024 thus far:
      -Sympathy Kiss
      -Cupid Parasite FD

      And yes, Idea Factory International will most likely release more otome titles in the future.
