Anchor just released the full series of Muv-Luv Unlimited: The Day After on Nintendo Switch.

If you’re unfamiliar with the Muv-Luv franchise, it was created by âge and it debuted in Japan starting in 2003 with a trilogy of sci-fi visual novels.
The original game for PC (which actually includes two visual novels, Muv-Luv Extra and Unlimited) was followed by Muv-Luv Alternative, completing the original trilogy in 2006. It’s considered by many to be one of the best visual novels ever written.
The trilogy was ported to several platforms, including PS3, Xbox 360, PS Vita, Steam, and recently Nintendo Switch and Android, and it was finally localized in English in 2016 following a very successful Kickstarter campaign. As mentioned above, the iOS version is coming soon.
Several additional visual novels like Unlimited: the Day After have since expanded the franchise’s universe, and we also have games featuring different genres like the action RPG Project MIKHAIL: A Muv-Luv War Story, the simulation RPG Muv-Luv Tactics, and the ongoing free-to-play spin-off Muv-Luv Girls Garden.
Further games are development and planned, including Muv-Luv Tactics Resonative, which is a sequel to Unlimited: the Day After, Duty: Lost Arcadia set on the European front, and the Muv-Luv Alternative sequel Muv-Luv: Integrate.
