Robotics;Notes may not be 5pb.'s final science adventure

Robotics;Notes may not be 5pb.'s final science adventure photo



There had been a rumor floating around for some time now that 5pb.'s upcoming visual novel/adventure game Robotics;Notes would be the last entry in what was believed to be a trilogy. Chaos;Head and Steins;Gate are the previous two titles that make up the science adventure series. CEO Chiyomaru Shikura stated in a Famitsu interview this month that he had never actually said or confirmed that to be the case. The implication behind this statement is that we may very well be seeing another game from 5pb. that makes use of semicolons in a way that may or may not make any sense. 

Additionally, Shikura stated that Robotics;Notes can be completed in somewhere between forty to seventy hours, making it one hell of a long experience. He noted that it'd take forty hours for players who skip some of the voice sequences. If you like to listen to all the voiced dialogue in a game, you're going to clock in at around seventy hours. Awesome.

Robotics;Notes hits Japanese stores on June 28th for the Xbox 360 and the PS3.
