VELVET CANDY TINT KISS is a Nintendo Switch romance adventure announced by Idea Factory at the Otomate Party 2026 Day 1 night performance on September 12. The game is set in modern Japan and is built around kisses.
Idea Factory announced VELVET CANDY TINT KISS on September 12 at the Otomate Party 2026 Day 1 night performance. The game is a Nintendo Switch romance adventure set in modern Japan, where the protagonist can captivate human men with kisses. The romanceable characters include twins, a demon-hunting buddy, and a self-proclaimed part-time job leader.
The announcement came inside a slate rather than on its own. The same night performance also confirmed a Switch port of the 2012 PSP title GENROH, planned for 2027, and tied off the label's near-term calendar with release windows running from December 17, 2026 through 2027. The event OTOMATE LOGBOOK PAGE02. "9 R.I.P. sequel" is scheduled for November 22, 2026, with two performances. Coverage of the night described the first details of VELVET CANDY TINT KISS at the same time as the GENROH port, so both titles arrived with the same amount of confirmed information: platform and premise, no release window of their own.
What is settled is the platform, the setting, and the kiss mechanic. What is not yet stated in coverage is a release window for VELVET CANDY TINT KISS, a cast, or a staff beyond Idea Factory. GENROH has a year, 2027, and November 22, 2026 belongs to the 9 R.I.P. sequel event, not to this game.
