Phantom of Inferno Visual Novel Slated for Steam on September 4
The Steam release brings the 2000 visual novel to a modern PC audience with the 2013 port's content and multi-language support.
Reporting from 1 source: Anime News Network.
Nitroplus' Nitro Origin label announced on August 7 that the 2000 visual novel Phantom of Inferno will launch on Steam as Phantom: Phantom Inferno on September 4. The release matches the 2013 PC port's content, with Japanese audio and English, Simplified Chinese, and Japanese text support.
The Steam version of Phantom of Inferno will carry the same content as the 2013 PC port, which itself followed earlier releases on DVD in 2001 and PS2 in 2003. The 2009 anime adaptation Phantom ~Requiem for the Phantom~ led to an Xbox 360 port in 2012 with updated graphics, and that version's cast voices the game's characters.
The story follows a teenage boy who encounters Phantom, a girl assassin his own age, and is trained by her in killing. The Steam page describes a criminal underworld shaken by assassinations and the mysterious organization Inferno.
