Spike Chunsoft opened the Steam store page for MAGES.'s STEINS;GATE RE:BOOT on August 6 and began accepting pre-orders. The reboot refreshes the original 2009 game's graphics, adds new story content, and re-records all voices. Pre-orders include a 10% discount until release and a free copy of the 2011 spin-off Octet of Transdimensional Space.
The Steam page for STEINS;GATE RE:BOOT went live on August 6, and Spike Chunsoft began taking pre-orders with a 10% discount that runs until release. The game is a full reboot of the original STEINS;GATE, which launched on Xbox 360 in 2009, and it rebuilds the visual novel with redrawn character art by huke, roughly double the event stills, and about 1.2 times the background graphics of the original.
The scenario is based on the 2018 STEINS;GATE ELITE, reworked for better pacing, with new world lines and endings added. All voices were re-recorded, and composer Takeshi Abo remade the BGM. The early purchase bonus is STEINS;GATE Octet of Transdimensional Space, a command-input adventure from 2011 styled after 1980s 8-bit PCs, scheduled for release in November.
