PQube Games have recently announced that the visual novel B-Project Ryusei*Fantasia, which originally released in Japan back in 2021, will be making its western debut in July 2024 for the Nintendo Switch and Steam (via Windows PC). Interestingly, two release dates have been announced depending on whether you wish to own the game physically or digitally.
Those wishing to purchase the digital version of B-Project Ryusei*Fantasia, for both Nintendo Switch (via Nintendo eShop) and Windows PC (via Steam), can do so on 15th July 2024. Those wishing to own a physical Nintendo Switch version meanwhile will have to wait until 26th July 2024. We can only assume that the difference in release date for the physical version is to allow production and distribution of stock to retailers.
