Steins;Gate: My Darling's Embrace[Note 1] is a sci-fi visual novel in the Science Adventure series developed by 5pb. It is a non-canon spin-off of Steins;Gate, featuring the original game's cast in a romantic comedy-themed setting.
The game was originally released exclusively on the Xbox 360 in Japan on June 16, 2011, before eventually receiving a PC port alongside an official English localization on December 10, 2019.
The current release suffers from a poor English text font and typography. No unofficial fixes or patches currently exist to rectify this.
