Devolver Digital Releasing Pigeon-Dating Sim 'Hatoful Boyfriend' Next Month With 'Summer of Dove' Collectors Edition: Dares Nerds To Play

Some days you just have to look at the calendar and check if it's not April 1. Today is not that day, however, even with the news of a Pigeon Dating Simulator hitting my inbox. It's just one of those days...

LUFTRAUSERS Review: The Best Rauser Simulator Ever Created,

Honestly, it's a real thing! Hatoful Boyfriend is a real, genuine game about pigeon loving being developed by Mediatonic (Amatuer Surgeon, Foul Play) and published by the madmen and women at Devolver Digital.

This is actually the HD remake of a free online game that was released back in 2011, an incredible avian success that spawned a webcomic, a radio production, even a web series. It's exactly what it sounds like, too, a take on the strangest game genre that exists, the Japanese Dating Sim. Hatoful Boyfriend features you playing as the only human student enrolling at the prestigious St. PigeoNation Institute, a school for [the] birds.

This remake has an all-new scenario from series creator Hato Moa, as well as a new ending and tons of new story choices, so hardcore fans will have plenty more to enjoy.
