One iced oat milk latte with honey and cinnamon, please! On Thursday, video game publisher Chorus Worldwide and indie developer Toge Productions officially launched Coffee Talk Tokyo, the long-awaited third installment in the cult cozy barista sim franchise.
Coffee Talk Tokyo, an interactive visual novel like its predecessors, puts players behind the counter of a quaint, open-late café where they’ll serve both human and supernatural inhabitants of a vibrant, neon-lit Tokyo. Across 15 in-game nights, players can masterfully mix matcha, mingle and connect with customers, and perfect new recipes, all while a new, stunning lo-fi soundtrack from composer Andrew “AJ” Jeremy adds ambiance to the adventure.
Fans familiar with the hit cozy game franchise will note some new additions in Coffee Talk Tokyo, including all-new clientele, the ability to craft iced drinks, and a new stencil tool that lets coffee-slingers zhuzh up bevs with adorable latte art. Players can also learn more about their patrons using “Tomodachill,” an in-game social system.
