A new game in the same series, Hakuisei Aijō Izonshō (白衣性愛情依存症, lit. White Robe Love Addiction), was released on PlayStation Vita on April 30, 2015, with a new cast of characters and art design.[2] It was subsequently released for Microsoft Windows on December 25, 2015 and for Nintendo Switch on May 24, 2018. Hakuisei Aijō Izonshō was in 2016 released in English and Chinese for Windows, and the following year on PlayStation Vita under the title Nurse Love Addiction, localizing the "White Robe" part of the series title to "Nurse", likely due to non-Japanese nurse uniform colors no longer being exclusively of white coloring.[3]
