Laplacian has announced the Nintendo Switch release of Kugayama Shiori's Death Diary, an occult mystery visual novel that is launching with multiple language options. The company shared the news from Tokyo on July 30, 2026.
According to the announcement, the Switch version is available in English, Japanese, and Simplified Chinese. That multilingual launch gives the title a wider audience on Nintendo's platform, especially for players looking for mystery and supernatural-themed visual novels outside Japan.
Kugayama Shiori's Death Diary is being positioned as an occult mystery experience, which places its focus on story, atmosphere, and unfolding narrative rather than action-driven gameplay. The release also adds another visual novel to the Nintendo Switch library, a platform that continues to attract readers of interactive fiction and anime-style adventure games.
While only limited launch details were shared in the initial announcement, the key takeaway is clear: Laplacian is bringing Kugayama Shiori's Death Diary to Switch with day-one support for English, Japanese, and Simplified Chinese, expanding the game's reach across several major markets.
