CHAOS;HEAD NOAH for PC no longer coming to Steam; Spike Chunsoft looking into alternative storefronts [Update]

Steam cancellation due to "guideline-required changes to the game's content."

Spike Chunsoft will not release CHAOS;HEAD NOAH for PC via Steam on October 7 as originally planned due to Steam’s “guideline-required changes to the game’s content,” which “would not allow the game to be released to its standards,” publisher Spike Chunsoft announced.

The company is currently looking into delivering the PC version through alternative storefronts, and will make a formal announcement when details are decided.

The CHAOS;HEAD NOAH / CHAOS;CHILD Double Pack for Switch will launch on October 7 in the west as planned.
