More than four years after it hit Japan, Death Match Love Comedy is finally getting an English release in the west. PQube will be bringing it over to Nintendo Switch in 2025.
Death Match Love Comedy, coming from the creators of Raging Loop, is a visual novel with slapstick comedy, occult experiences, and romance. It first launched in 2021 in Japan.
Thanks to PQube, we have the following rundown:
First year Kei Yagi is about to receive a love confession from not one, but two classmates, when he suddenly explodes! Although this initial incident was an illusion, he discovers that due to a mysterious curse put upon him, the next time he receives a confession of love he will truly explode and die!
