On July 4, 2025, JastUSA posted that it will release the English and Chinese versions of a School Days Remaster for Windows PC. Overflow, the original studio behind School Days, is still handling the game’s Japanese release.
The announcement on JastUSA’s X (formerly Twitter) account shows an in-development picture of Sekai and Kotonoha, the two main heroines of School Days. The artwork is still a rough draft, but it’s likely to be the cover art of the finished game. According to the text on the teaser image, the game will come out in 2025, and it’ll be optimized for any high-end graphics driver so you can enjoy the game as it was no matter your PC.
School Days is an infamous eroge visual novel that came out in 2005. It spawned several adaptations, such as an anime version and a manga serialization. The plot follows Makoto Ito, a high school student who falls in love with his classmate, Kotonoha. Sekai, also a classmate of theirs, helps the two get together, but she becomes jealous after she starts developing feelings for Makoto herself.
Despite its age, School Days still has a following, likely for its depressing and gory story. Aspects of School Days have achieved meme status, even among people who have never watched the show or played the game before. It’s also been a yearly tradition for Abema to stream the show every Christmas for peak romance and festivity.
A School Days Remaster is in development for the Windows PC (Windows 11), and it’ll come out some time in 2025.
