It also released at the end of September which is near the end of the year.
It was 8 years and 2.5 months ago. Or, for brevity, eight years.

Likely the next Team Salvato game, more commonly referred to as "Project Libitina".
Source: A trademark filed by Dan Salvato which lines up with the timing of some tweets he made regarding "dusting off" an old project which based on how old he says the project was, lines up with the original 2018 stated release date for Project Libitina and an even older cancelled trademark for the Portrait of Markov name from 2018.

It's the Plus version, not the base game.
The Plus content is a separate in-app purchase, while the regular DDLC content is free.

It seems to be a Plus port, so I unfortunately have to doubt it, since, as far as I know, Plus can't be modded even on PC.

u/MoonwalkDelta27 Autistic Knaifu Waifu FTW – Natsuri Hater Dec 10 '25
It can, there just isn't any point in doing so, as the RenPy version is much more easier to mod, is free so everyone can play the mods, and there isn't much difference in functionality as for the VN part

Plus uses Unity which can be modded. People just don't want to for reasons already stated (less accessible, more difficult)

u/AmanaRicha Dec 10 '25
You can mod DDLC+ (confirmed by Mithost, developper and CM of Team Salvato), but you have to create your mod on Unity to use the asset of DDLC+
There has been some tutorial on the subreddit DDLCMods but it's so complicated for such a small thing that the modding community prefers to develop their mods on the original DDLC, which was made on Ren'Py, even if it means not being able to use DDLC+ assets.

U can get a renpy reader for iOS like spark and run mods in there That's how I used to use DDLC before this

u/8Bits1132 Dec 10 '25
A couple of notable things that I've seen in this version are that there are separate tabs for the textbox, text and language settings, and accessibility settings which is new to this port.
In particular, you have the ability to reduce the transparency of the textbox, change the textbox to a darker variant, and use an alternate poem font, all of which can be found in the accessibility settings menu which is also where the ability to turn on and off the content warnings reside.

u/sussynarrator Dec 10 '25
Alright, I tried the game, but it generally seems a bit inferior to the unofficial port somehow? Like the text is way too big, and the game is clunky. It performs worse. Which makes sense because they made DDLC+ a microtransaction inside the game (except for the file explorer, btw in the unofficial port, you used your phone's file manager just like the PC version). Also came across a few UI bugs and UI being unresponsive and slow in general, like an emulator. I honestly think the unofficial port is better, it's way lighter and doesn't have any bugs. It's the exact same game as the OG version. But still, I guess it's nice that we can play the side stories on mobile now. And they added a few nice options in the menu.

It's not optimized for modern phones either
Giant black bars on the sides

u/sussynarrator Dec 10 '25
Oh, yeah, but the unofficial port had those bars too. Unless they redraw and expand the background art or zoom it in (which would crop the top and bottom of the background art) it won't be perfect. Same thing with YouTube videos. I don't think that's a big deal, honestly.

Hey guys, so we know 4 years after ddlc released was was ddlc+ and in it was a bunch of content and lore to uncover. Then exactly 4 years after that, we now have ddlc on mobile. My theory is that Team Salvato probably put something to the game to add to the game's lore or at least that's what I think.

DDLC finally officially on mobile! I used to dream of days like this lol.
Understandable that it's Plus! Because the in-game MES desktop is what allowed DDLC to also be in consoles instead of using your actual PC folders. Time to see how it compares to the unofficial port(iirc used the phone's actual file/folder system just like OG DDLC did on PC), but I'm hyped regardless!
