WORLD END ECONOMiCA Visual Novel Available on Steam and Switch

The complete WORLD END ECONOMiCA visual novel series is now available for purchase as a bundle on PC via Steam and Nintendo Switch. This sci-fi title features a narrative by Isuna Hasekura, the creator behind the Spice and Wolf light novels. The story unfolds across three distinct episodes set on a lunar metropolis more than sixteen years after human migration began there. Players follow Haru, a young man born on the moon who seeks wealth through stock trading to fund his dream of exploring uncharted territory. Originally released independently between 2011 and 2016, the individual episodes were previously ported to digital platforms in 2014 and 2015. The game combines financial mechanics with character-driven drama, using market fluctuations to test the ambitions and convictions of its cast. While the premise involves complex economic concepts, the focus remains on personal growth and the emotional stakes involved in high-risk investing. The bundled release offers access to the full conclusion of Haru’s journey without requiring separate purchases.
