Grisaia: Phantom Trigger 07 and Grisaia: Phantom Trigger 08 coming to Switch
Prototype has announced through this week’s issue of Famitsu that Grisaia: Phantom Trigger 07 and Grisaia: Phantom Trigger 08 will both be making their way to Switch very soon. They are both sequels to Grisaia: Phantom Trigger 01 through 06, other games in the series that released on Switch last year.
Both games are visual novels that originally released on PC via Steam. These games are specifically kinetic novels, meaning they follow a set path that requires less player intervention compared to other visual novel titles like Ace Attorney or Danganronpa.
Here is an overview of each game via their official Steam page:

Echoing voices call out to them from far away.All units of SORD and CIRS are summoned for a mission of unprecedented scale. Their enemy: the religious organization “The Fatal Answer”, or “TFA”, where Enishi and Kuroe eagerly await a climactic confrontation.
Meanwhile, Arisaka Shiori finds herself in two minds. As a teacher and staff member, and as a human being, should she allow her students to jump headfirst into this battle, or should she forbid it? Their fate lies entirely in her hands…
“Do you not have anything you’d want to protect no matter what, even if you had to kill for it?”
“This small notebook will probably end up serving as a memento of my life.”
“Keep in mind that this lesson will save lives one day!”
“If there was a child fighting for the enemy, would you shoot them?”
“I hope you won’t regret this…”
“It can’t be any worse than to regret doing nothing.”What sort of scenes will Arisaka be met with on the battlefield, where sparks of conflict are flying left, right and center?
“I’ve already gone through hell and back several times, so I figured that nothing could be worse… But now I realize that the levels of ‘hell’ I’ve been dragged through weren’t even all that hellish.”
Grisaia: Phantom Trigger 08
About
“Grisaia: Phantom Trigger” is a visual novel. Returning character artist Akio Watanabe and writer Ryuta Fujisaki bring you the last installment in the acclaimed Grisaia series, “Grisaia: Phantom Trigger”.
This is the final instalment in the Phantom Trigger series! What will become of the members of SORD at the end of this long, grueling battle?
This final volume contains over three times as much text and voiced lines as the previous volumes.Story:
At last, an all-out war is at hand.
The battle against the religious organization, The Fatal Answer (TFA), has entered its final phase, with CIRS and SORD preparing to send all of their troops into TFA’s stronghold.
The battlefield soon descends into total chaos. Black rain pours down, civilians become desperate for water, and shots are fired at friend and foe alike. Not even the trenches are safe from the anti-aircraft guns TFA employs, the explosions bombarding the combat zone that the girls are tasked with invading. Such a feat is not unlike invading the depths of hell itself. The underground base is quickly being suffocated by gunpowder, and the dark forest that surrounds the battlefield reeks with the stench of death. But both contain within them the faint yet tenacious flames of life; will those flames be able to withstand the harsh realities of war?
This must never, ever be repeated again…
“Listen up, everyone! Final equipment checks!”
“Yeah, there’s nowhere to retreat to.”
“Is it okay to kill them?”
“We can die happy.”
“Thank God! I’ll never let you go again!”
“Life itself is war…”
“Prepare for close-quarters combat!”
“Holy crap! Look! They’re charging right at us!”
“They’ve completely lost their minds…”
“Well then, I guess it’s time to end this… What are you going to do, Enishi-san?The girl places her finger on the trigger of fate…
“Why… Why do you fight?”
