Rejoice! Otome game Amnesia: Memories is coming out in English

That’s right, Amnesia: Memories, one of the most requested otome games by the English community, is actually getting localized! I take back everything I said in my slightly scathing article about Idea Factory International not releasing any games from their Otomate library. According to folk son Twitter who attended the company’s inaugural press event, it turns out they’ve been hard at work localizing Amnesia: Memories for both PS Vita and Steam! Update: The official site is now live, along with an English trailer!

Amnesia: Memories is a relatively unique otome game that starts you out in the shoes of an amnesiac protagonist (okay, that part’s not that unique) who is thrown into a reality of your choice where she’s already in an existing relationship with one of the game’s dateable men. Each reality is slightly different, but the ultimate goal is always the same: figure out what caused the protagonist’s amnesia and get lovey-dovey with your sweetheart of choice.

Amnesia: Memories is slated to launch digitally for PS Vita and Steam in August. Stay tuned for future posts where I’ll talk about my experiences with the Japanese game!I honestly believe Amnesia: Memories is a great choice for an English release, given how popular the title is in Japan and among English-speaking otome game fans. But, while you may find yourself so excited for the game’s impending release that you’re tempted to watch the anime adaptation, I’m going to advise against it… Unless you enjoy things that are laughably bad.

About Anne

Also known as apricotsushi. Anne can be written with the kanji for apricot (杏), and sushi was the most quintessentially Japanese thing I could think of when I was 13, resulting in my goofy, albeit memorable, nickname.

  2. You’ll single-handedly fund the next otome game localization! 😉

    Ah, well, here’s where I admit that I’ve only played one route of the Japanese version so far, which was Kent’s, so I’ve gotta say he’s probably my fav at the moment! I don’t normally go for the nerdy glasses type, but I liked him! You?

  3. I bought the Japanese version to help me with my studies, so I probably won’t want anything to do with it by the time it comes out in English. But I’m buying both versions because we need more otome games.

  4. I’m sure they’ll appreciate the support! You could even play through the English version and then look at the Japanese version so you know the story somewhat and practice your Japanese 🙂

  5. I haven’t played it/don’t actually know much about the game outside of some screenshots so I’m going off pure looks alone: That white haired dude is my favorite in that regard, haha.

  6. Ugh and Steam… well now I STILL have no reason to buy a Vita…
    BUT… if they release another Vita game I’ll get a Vita..

    THAT being said, I await it’s release on Steam, I can only hope it doesn’t have any porting bugs.
