Idea Factory International has confirmed a release date for Cupid Parasite: Sweet and Spicy Darling, which is coming to Nintendo Switch.
Cupid, the goddess of love, is working at Cupid Corporation, a major marriage agency at which she strives to become the top bridal advisor.
After she is assigned five hopeless clients known as the Parasite 5, she guides them through mock dates, matchmaking seminars and the reality show Parasite House, only to discover that they all abruptly cancel their memberships.
Their departures bring personal challenges to the surface that Cupid must confront, after, in what is pitched as “an endearing, joyful, and chaotic tale that’s richer and more exhilarating than ever,” she realises that she has fallen in love.
The publisher has outlined the game’s key features, which include:
- Sweeter and Spicier!: Return to Los York with the original cast of Cupid Parasite, plus an all-new character Merenice Levin. Rendezvous with seven of the sweetest and spiciest bachelors in up to 3 game modes and unlock over 80 CGs, including some that may be too hot to handle!
- All Different Flavors to Choose From: Pick from three different modes that can satiate anyone with a sweet tooth. Select “After Drama” mode to follow up with the original Parasite 6 and pick up from where you last left off. Go with “New Parasite” mode for a chance to experience Merenice Levin’s perspective of the events that take place after the common route of Cupid Parasite. You can also explore routes you unlocked in “Bonus Episode” mode for six bonus episodes with their own unlockable CGs!
- In Sweetness and In Spiciness?!: You must choose the flavour of the next course. Will you go with the sweet? Or will you go with the spicy? When prompted with the choice during gameplay, select between sweet or spicy to impact the ending of your selected route. Manage to balance the flavours for a chance at something really appetizing.
- Rich, Decadent Visuals and Savory Scenarios: The original scenario writer and illustrator of Cupid Parasite return! Ririka Yoshimura (scenario writer) and Yuuya (illustrator) join forces once again to bring fans a delectable addition to the Cupid Parasite universe.
Cupid Parasite: Sweet and Spicy Darling will be released at retail and digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch worldwide on 28 May 2024.
