There hasn't been much word on cult hit visual novel Steins;Gate since the announcement of its PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita release. For North America and Europe, its release date is still a tentative May 2015. However, eager fans should be happy with the announcement of the El Psy Kongroo special edition, which will be exclusive to RiceDigital.co.uk. It's worth noting, though, that the site provides free worldwide shipping, should you feel the need to import.
With knowledge of the Future Gadget Team's secret code, you too can become a member by getting access to some exclusive goodies. Included are metal pins proving that you are indeed a part of the Future Gadget Club, and a replica of the rare metal Upa. Also included is a beautiful art box to store the items in, along with a 124-page art book showing off key art and CGs.
The game centres around Rintaro Okabe, a self proclaimed mad scientist and founder of the Future Gadget Club. Inadvertently, he creates a microwave that can send items through time. With his childhood friend and a foreign scientist just two of the many people who end up joining the club in their time travelling experiments, how far will they go? With a dark, story driven plot that Japanese visual novel developer Nitroplus is famous for, it's arguably one of the most famous and highest rated visual novel titles of all time.

Never played a visual novel and been meaning to give one a go. Think I might give this a go. The collectors edition will certainly make a nice gift for a friend too!
Sounds nice.
Just finished watching the anime the other day. Slow to start, but once it picked up it really picked up! Definitely keeping an eye on this
@SteveButler2210 I've had friends say "I'll finish it in two weeks" and end up watching it in two days. When the plot gets going, it is highly addictive. I am looking forward into seeing the "side character"'s stories better.
I'll pay anything to get that metal upa!
