Libra of the Vampire Princess launches on Steam June 20th at 3 P.M. PST.  After a very successful Kickstarter this vampire filled adventure is finally making its way to Steam. This is Mikandi Japan’s first localized visual novel.

Below is a bit about the story of this visual novel straight from the press release:

Players jump into the role of high school student Shuma Kusanagi as he searches for answers about his family’s mysterious past and the reason he’s been deliberately “awoken” into a vampire by the two-thousand-year old pigtailed nemesis, Iris Pumila. This strange new identity sees him trying to resist the urge to suck blood, deal with seductive advances from girls, all while clashing with a hard-headed vampire hunter’s blades, a trash-talking redhead’s scythe, a werewolf maid’s scolding, and a posh aristocrat who won’t take “no” for an answer. But that’s just for starters. The world is apparently on the verge of annihilation! Will Shuma get the answers he needs before it’s too late?

Here are some of the game’s features:

● English subtitles, fully voiced in Japanese

● 50+ hours play time

● 4 different endings

● 2D animated battle sequences

● Steam achievements, trading cards, badges, emoticons and backgrounds

The game will retail for $39.99 but there is a launch discount of  10% making it  $35.99 for a limited time. You can also head over to Libra’s official store Lv XERO if you would like to purchase the additional Adults only content patch for a very reasonable $2.99. You can find out more information over on Libra of the Vampire Princess’s Steam Page.
