Kanon for Switch update to add English and Simplified Chinese language support on December 5

As a seasoned enthusiast of visual novels with a soft spot for stories that tug at my heartstrings, I can hardly contain my excitement about the upcoming English and Simplified Chinese language updates for the Switch version of Kanon! Having grown up playing these emotional rollercoasters on my trusty old PC, the opportunity to experience the enchanting world of Kanon on the go is a dream come true.


Starting from December 5, 2023, the Switch adaptation of the romance visual novel “Kanon” released in Japan on April 20, will receive updates featuring English and Simplified Chinese language options. Moreover, the opening movie will be accessible in all three languages: English, Japanese, and Simplified Korean, as announced by its publisher PROTOTYPE.
