The isekai visual novel Ascendant Hearts, which I wrote the script for, is coming to the Nintendo Switch!
It will be available from the Nintendo eShop for $9.99 on January 30.
Ascendant Hearts is a romantic comedy visual novel about a young man who wakes up in a fantasy world where the rules of RPGs govern real life. It parodies a lot of JRPG and MMORPG tropes, and it’s also a galge/bishojo game with three possible romance options.
I’m excited that a project I played a major role in is going to be available on Switch. I had a lot of fun working on Ascendant Hearts, so I hope you’ll take a look if you like romance visual novels.
(Speaking of such things, people responded positively to my social media polls about holding a romance game event in February, so you can look forward to those reviews coming up next month!)
Here is the new trailer for the Switch release of Ascendant Hearts.
(I almost posted another Kingdom Hearts article today instead, since the KHUX team’s announcement turned out to be “Project Xehanort,” an upcoming prequel about Young Xehanort… for mobile devices. I’ve wanted that game forever, so I would be much more excited if it wasn’t a mobile game.
I decided to save that post for once we have more information.)
Anyway, what do you think of Ascendant Hearts and its upcoming Switch release? Let me know in the comments!
