Steins;Gate 0 (シュタインズ・ゲート ゼロ Shutainzu Gēto Zero?) is a Japanese visual novel developed by Mages, and a side entry in the Science Adventure Series, serving as a continuation to the story of the "hypothetical science adventure" Steins;Gate.
The marketing for Steins;Gate 0 referred to it as a "true sequel" to Steins;Gate, as opposed to a spin-off or alternative story, like the previously released Steins;Gate: Linear Bounded Phenogram. Zero itself takes inspiration from the series of light novels known as the "Epigraph Trilogy", though it is not a direct adaptation.
Steins;Gate 0 was released in Japan on December 10, 2015 for the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4 and the PlayStation Vita.
An English localization was released by PQube for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita on November 25, 2016 in Europe and four days later in North America, both with regular and limited editions. It was later re-released for Steam by Spike Chunsoft on May 8, 2018.
