Ren’ai X Royale Western Release Announced By NekoNyan

Publisher NekoNyan has announced the western release of Ren’ai X Royale during their Anime Central 2022 panel. The visual novel is developed by ASa Project (Renai Karichaimashita: Koikari – Love For Hire), and was originally released on PC in Japan in 2020. It’s currently at 100% translated and 5% edited.

Ren’ai X Royale tells the story of a young man called Komachi Hirotaka. He had a simple routine, which somehow included doding the advances of his kouhai, chasing idols and hitting on the student council president. One day, a new transfer student confesses her love to him, causing an uproar at school. Many women like him, so this confession was seen as a declaration of war to them. They’ll all fight for his heart and only one can be the victor.

The five main love interests include the idol Amagamine Renna (VA: Shinonome Ria), the single-minded kouhai Hanamaru Mari (VA: Kino Miki), student council president Harizome Shione (VA: Shirotsuki Kaname), another idol called Kagaya Yuna (VA: Kotori Yuuka), and his brocon sister Komachi Nonoka (VA: Anzu Mitsu). Without the protagonist knowing, these girls will start a battle royale to define who is the one worthy of his heart.
