Aksys Games Reveals Norn9: Var Commons Cards and Norn9: Last Era Limited Edition

Board a mysterious ship with twelve strangers and journey to uncover the secrets that lie in the Norn!


Torrance, Calif. — February 7, 2023 — Aksys Games offered a glimpse of the exclusive set of twelve(!) full-color character cards that will be included in all first run copies of the fan-favorite otome title Norn9: Var Commons, coming to Nintendo Switch™ on March 30th.

Aksys also revealed components in the upcoming Limited Edition of the fan disk Norn9: Last Era, localized for the first time in the west and coming this summer. Included in the collection are a full color artbook, a 25" x 15" cloth poster, a set of 11 vinyl stickers featuring the Hiyoko, and an acrylic chibi artwork keychain. First run copies of Last Era will also have a set of twelve character cards.

In Norn9: Var Commons, child prodigy Sorata Suzuhara wanders off from his class on a field trip and blacks out. When he comes to, he finds himself in an unfamiliar place, and encounters a girl who informs him that he's in Taisho-era Japan! She leads him to a ship to help him get home, but it is not a wooden sailing ship, but a round aircraft that flies using technology beyond Sorata's imagination. Even stranger, he discovers twelve others, three young women and nine young men, all espers with special powers, on some kind of journey at the behest of a multinational entity known only as The World.

What is the purpose of their journey? What is their destination, and what is The World? Before Sorata can even begin to gasp his situation, the ship is attacked, and the mystery only deepens. Delve into the story of the ship and its occupants through the point of view of each of the girls, and unravel the mysteries trapped within. Norn9: Last Era continues the team's adventures in three exciting parts.
