Let's not forget about 'What Remains of Edith Finch'. It's a walking simulator, not a VN, but it's a masterclass in family drama told through short stories. While not centrally a romance, many of the vignettes explore romantic relationships within the family's cursed history, each brimming with love, longing, and tragedy.
The dramatic impact of each story is immense, delivered through brilliant environmental storytelling. It shows how interactive narratives can explore relationship drama in ways pure text sometimes can't. If you're interested in narrative-driven games that prioritize emotional, character-focused drama above all else, this is a must-play on PS5.
It's a short experience, but every minute is dripping with atmosphere and poignant writing. It proves that you don't need branching choices to deliver a powerful dramatic narrative.
