The game is set in Akihabara, the series' long-standing setting. It follows a group of enthusiasts gathered around an amateur lab, who discover a way to send messages to the past and realise too late what it costs to tamper with time. This version takes the rebuild a long way: characters, backgrounds and key scenes have been remade from scratch, with twice as many illustrations and 20% more backgrounds than the original. Character designer huke returns with redesigned outfits and accessories, Akihabara has been recreated with more depth and realism, and the E-mote technology already used in Anonymous;Code animates the characters with much richer expressions. Takeshi Abo has re-recorded the soundtrack, all of the original Japanese voice actors have returned, and the script adds new dialogue as well as a new route leading to an additional ending.

There are two editions. The standard edition, available on Switch 2 and PS5, contains the full game with all of these changes. The Steelbook edition adds a metal case featuring a new illustration by huke, along with a 4.5 in (11.43 cm) water-resistant transparent sticker. This sticker is also included with first-run copies of every version.
