The game is scheduled for release in 2027, with platforms still unannounced. Dream Club ZERO R+ is a port of Dream Club ZERO, the romance simulation game originally released for Xbox 360 in 2011. The port adds three new host girls and features newly drawn character illustrations. Haruyuki Morisawa returns as character designer. The original Dream Club ZERO is set five months before the first Dream Club, in a members-only social club that only those with a pure heart may enter. Players take part-time jobs on weekdays to earn money and request their preferred host girl on weekends, with conversation, food and drinks, and karaoke. Automaton notes the announcement did not specify what the R+ suffix refers to.","whyItMatters":"The port returns a dormant D3 Publisher series at the 15th anniversary event for Dream Club ZERO, with the company using new host girls and new illustrations rather than a straight rerelease to reintroduce the franchise.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe three additions sit on top of a base game that already had 13 host girls, and the whole pitch is framed as a reopening rather than a rerelease.
