The new Key visual novel anemoi has had its Japanese release delayed from January 30, 2026 to April 24, 2026.
The announcement, which was made on December 25, said that the delay was made so that the game could meet the desired level of quality.
anemoi‘s premise sees siblings Mugi and Rikka Hayakawa coming to the northern town of Masumi, where Mugi comes into contact with various heroines. The setting also has a time capsule that was buried 10 years ago and is due to be unearthed soon.
The visual novel will get a Steam release with English, Simplified Chinese, and Japanese language support, though no release date has been given yet. Development of the game itself was announced in 2023.
