No release date was announced for the game but more details will be announced in the next issue of Dengeki G’s magazine which will ship at the end of the month. However it was revealed that Na-Ga, Tsubasu Izumi and Yuunon Nagayama will be providing the illustrations while Jun Maeda will be composing the music along with Donaru, Shinji Orito and Tomohiro Takeshita.
