Note written 2026-08-25; the live figures above take precedence over any numbers in it.

A 2019 visual novel sequel to Steins;Gate that explores alternative romantic storylines with the original cast.

My Darling's Embrace holds a quiet but durable niche in the visual novel catalog, with strong community sentiment (95%+ positive) and consistent residual revenue despite minimal promotional activity over the past three years. The franchise positioning and intact player base make this a solid candidate for either licensing expansion or a modest publishing refresh, though the dormant developer relationship and niche genre limit upside. Most relevant for publishers seeking catalog depth in anime-adjacent titles or franchise holders exploring secondary IP exploitation. Most realistic play: licensing.

• Risk: Game is based on the Steins;Gate franchise; rights likely held by 5pb./Chiyomaru Studio or their parent; acquisition of the title alone is not feasible.
• Risk: No developer communication for roughly 36 months suggests inactive post-launch support and potential technical debt.
• Risk: Visual novel genre remains niche; platform is Western indie-skewed, limiting audience growth.
