Battlefield Waltz launches April 8, 2025 in the west

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades under my belt, I must say that the upcoming release of Otome visual novel “Battlefield Waltz” for Switch next year is nothing short of exhilarating! Having grown up on PlayStation Vita and now transitioning to Nintendo platforms, it’s refreshing to see a game from my past making a comeback.

As a passionate gamer, I’m excited to share that on April 8, 2025, I’ll be diving into the captivating world of the Otome visual novel Battlefield Waltz, exclusively on my Nintendo Switch! The publisher, Idea Factory International, has confirmed its western release.

Initially, Battlefield Waltz was introduced for the PlayStation Vita on November 20, 2014 in Japan. Later, it became available on Nintendo Switch on April 13, 2023.

Here is an overview of the game, via Idea Factory International:

About

A girl loses everything, all in one day. Her village, and even worse—her father…

In their place, she acquires a new power.

When she grabs a sword for self-defense and the safety of her dear ones, she uncovers its mysterious strength and potential for great power.

With a discovery potentially upending the country’s structure, she finds herself compelled to reside within the realm of conflict.

At Nirvana, the highly patriotic military academy, she now resides. This is where outstanding individuals from diverse backgrounds assemble, honing their martial talents through competition and refining their abilities in combat.

She encounters new individuals, establishes deep connections, and rediscovers where she believed she no longer fitted in: a sense of belonging.

This is the story of the girl and the talking cursed sword by her side.
