Aksys Announces Three New Otome Games During their All Aksys 2024 Stream
Otome gamers we have some announcements! During their All Aksys event earlier today, publisher Aksys Games announced three new otome releases making their way to the Nintendo Switch in 2024 and 2025! I won’t keep you in suspense, here is the rundown of the All Aksys otome announcements!
New Otome Announcements from Aksys Games
Despera Drops (Nintendo Switch – 2025)
In the summer of 2028, Mika Amamine, studying abroad at a university in Bologna, Italy, visits Rome for a short trip with friends to celebrate the end of exams. However, during that trip, she encounters a murder incident and is subsequently arrested as a suspect. While being transported in a police vehicle, it suddenly overturns in an accident, freeing Mika along with six other criminals and they all become fugitives. Mysterious attackers appear, targeting the unique “power” that Mika possesses, and the group finds themselves pursued by both the police and the attackers. The secret hidden within Mika’s power, the identity of the attackers, and the truth behind the murder incident that started it all… Can they unravel these mysteries and reclaim a normal life?
Radiant Tale -Fanfare- (Nintendo Switch – Summer 2024)
The fandisk for “Radiant Tale” includes all-new stories, including sugary sweet after-stories that follow the happy endings with the five love interests in the original game, as well as new routes with two side characters following the normal ending of the common route. Additionally, the fandisk contains a collection of mini-episodes of events that occurred throughout the original main story, allowing fans to further enjoy its contents.
Virche Evermore -EpiC: Lycoris- (Nintendo Switch – Fall 2024)
Return to the island of Arpéchéle where, surrounded by the sea and black flowers of misfortune called Lycoris Noirge, humans are cursed to die by age 23. Five new tales further explore the world of Virche Evermore. Experience the new despair and salvation that awaits Ceres and her suitors.
Also, during the stream, Aksys Games provided a release date for the previously announced, Tengoku Struggle. The game will be making it’s way to the Nintendo Switch on April 4th 2024.
Tengoku Struggle -Strayside- (NSW/April 4) – From the team that created Olympia Soirée comes a comedic battle fantasy set in a place where the living and the dead mingle, and sinners are pitted against each other in eternal battle. Rin Enma, adopted daughter of the king of the underworld, has been tasked with tracking down and recapturing a group of escaped sinners. Accompanying her on her journey are four sinners hand-picked by her father. Will Rin succeed in her mission… and will she discover love?

I’m always keeping an eye on every Aksys release as much as possible, what I’m most looking forward to is Radiant Tale and Virche, I want to buy these VNs that are coming in translation as much as possible!
Thank you for the news! I was somehow expecting even /more/ loc announcements, which tells a lot, either about how much the latest years have spoiled us, or how greedy I am as a person. Oo But those are great picks, so all in all I’m super hyped. 🙂
The Virche FD anouncement got me squeeing, and I haven’t even played the main game yet – absolute clown behaviour :DD
And DesperaDrops… I didn’t know the first thing about this game beforehand, but after looking at this trailer I’m absolutely obsessed. I’ve seen people say they didn’t find any of the LIs appealing/interesting, and I get it, but… well, it couldn’t be me. Not everyone, but dang am I curious about at least half of this cast. This game could end up being so fun!
(also the one playtime registered on vndb is 100 h, and I’m wondering if that’s really true?? I’d love to have an otome be the same length as your average jrpg, personally. ^^)
What about you? Are you happy about some of the stuff that’s been announced? What are you looking forward to most? Any titles you were expecting that aren’t there? I’d love to hear your thoughts if you wanna share!
