Hymer 2000 release date

We just heard about Hymer for Nintendo Switch a little while back, but we now have the release date. It’s confirmed to hit the console on November 13, 2025.

Cyberstep and Rabbitfoot have announced yet another visual novel in collaboration with a VTuber. Chinami Holic will be launching in Japan for Nintendo Switch on January 28, 2026.

There will also be a “kids” version of the game made available, which will exclude some of the more risqué scenes and imagery for a wider audience.
