Update: Circle Entertainment deleted its original tweet, and has now clarified that the company is indirectly involved with the western release:

Voez is one of Japan’s launch games on the Switch eShop. Thankfully, we haven’t had to wait long for a localization announcement. Circle confirmed on Twitter earlier today that the company will handle Voez in the west.

The brief tweet reads:

Voez doesn’t have a release date for North America or Europe yet, though we’ll keep you informed as the situation develops.

The official website for Voez has been updated with a few more details about the Switch game.

Most significantly, only portable play is supported due to incorporation of the touchscreen. There isn’t support for buttons, and you won’t be able to experience the title on the television as a result.

After purchasing Voez, 116 songs will be available. Ascension(xi) is in as an exclusive song on Switch, and even more exlusive music will be added for free down the road via updates.

One final note: Japanese, English, Traditional Chinese, and Korean are all in.
