This Valentine’s Day, Aksys will launch Code: Realize ~Wintertide Miracles~, the next chapter in the super popular romance visual novel series for both the PlayStation 4 and the PS Vita. Made by the otome masters Idea Factory and Design Factory, ~Wintertide Miracles~ continues the adventures of Cardia and a variety of gorgeous and well-known figures from Western literature as they face new challenges, new friends and foes, and new opportunities for love.

~Wintertide Miracles~ takes us deeper into the world of Code: Realize and its intriguing characters and doubles the excitement. Lupin, Sholmés, Finis, and the mysterious young lady Cantarella are some of the new names and beautiful faces you will meet. And you can go on two-on-one dates at a variety of romantic settings, setting the boys up for a chaotic date night. Sit back and watch the sparks fly!

We got our hands on the Limited Edition which comes with some extra goodies! Read on for the inside scoop.

The Code: Realize ~Wintertide Miracles~ Limited Edition box set comes in a collectible rigid metallic foil finish box showcasing some of the handsome men in the game as well as a profile of Cardia to the left and Cantarella to the right and a mysterious dark figure seemingly controlling things from behind a mask.

The back gives us a glimpse of the bonus items inside!—6 chibi-style acrylic figurines and 8 oversized character cards—as well as a preview of the characters and gameplay.

When you open the main box, things only get better as you find a carefully and lovingly packed bunch of goodies! At the top, the reason you came—the game: Code: Realize ~Wintertide Miracles~. The box the game is in is the standard game case with Lupin and Cardia romantically laughing and embracing in the falling snow. Awww.

The next layer in this neatly packed box of romance is a set of 8 oversized cards each with a gorgeous rendering of a character. Besides our leading lady, we get Lupin, a brooding Sholmès, sexy megane-kun Van (as in Van Helsing!), shota Finis, uber-elegant Saint Germaine, redheaded cool guy Impey, and sweet nerd Frankenstein.

The next two layers contain the six acrylic figures! The laser-cut acrylic figurines come with little stands to place them wherever you like. Cardia, Van, Sholmès, Fran, Impey, and Saint Germaine were the lucky ones to get transformed into chibis and each is more adorable than the last!

Characters are very important in visual novels. Not only their roles in the story and their personalities but, in otome games at least, also their looks! Code Realize has amassed a huge fanbase because of the quality of the games in regards to story, chracter development, and stunning designs and visuals. This limited edition Code: Realize ~Wintertide Miracles~ bundle brings the unique beauty of our new heartthrobs out of the game and into our everyday lives with the gorgeous oversized cards and adorable chibi figurines. And the February 14th release date is perfect for it! Gift it to someone you love! (Like yourself!!!) No, but really, it makes a great gift and a great collectible for fans of the series or simply fans of beautiful boys.

Whether you’ve played the Code Realize games before or are an otome newbie, you will not be disappointed in the game and you’ll love all the extra bishounen swag in your life!
