After facing some delays, Steins;Gate Elite will finally be making its way westward, on February 19, 2019. It’ll be available on the PC, Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation 4, the latter two of which will have special limited editions. Retailing for $89.99, it’ll come with the game, a hardcover book of the storyboard animations, a collector’s box, and a cloth poster. Nintendo Switch versions will have access to 8-Bit Sci Adv, while PS4 owners will get Linear Bounded Phenogram, both of which are side story adventures that have not been localized until now.

What exactly is Steins;Gate Elite? It can't just be the original VN with the anime's art can it?

Yes. It also has new anime scenes for "certain" endings.

An ultimate version of the game? Since I never got around to playing it in the first place, sounds like this is the one for me.

Wait... So switch get one bonus game, and ps4 get another? Hmmm....

 

[brunocar]

so its the same game but they replaced the awesome artstyle with copy pasted art from the anime? fuck that

And the PS4 (and PC) version arguably gets the far better story, heck it's written by the 999 dude so you know its good. The 8-Bit one is cute, too, but feels like such a weak comparison. Dunno why they split it between versions.

 

[gnmmarechal]

Hmm, I could get this.

 

[Pacheko17]

I hate Steins;Gate.

Splitting the additional stories between console versions....
And the wallet gets-a-raped.

(whyyyy? should watch some let's play and avoid falling for this)

There goes my next pay check ; ;

I hate Steins;Gate.

Why is that?

 

[RedBlueGreen]

I already have it on Vita so I probably won't pick up the Switch version, and I think I'll just wait for the PS4 or PC version to drop in price. Hell Chaos;Child is already super cheap for PS4 on eBay. And that game isn't even a year old.

So you buy both versions.

switch release always sounds good to me. But my wallet cries

Seems about right

It's stuff like this that makes me put off of the games entirely. Once again, greed ruined it.

Buy one version and borrow the other version from your friend.

Some people doesn't understand that the whole game in animated. The Anime only covers the true route, which is not even 30% of all the possible routes.

Meh... 50% of the game is common routes, then the anime covers a bit of many routes and then the true route.
I would say it is about 70% of all the game.

That said, a lot of interesting stuff is kept out.
Specially Faris... I would like to see Faris ending part animated.
