Clannad is one of those visual novels that basically every fan in the genre is aware of, whether or not they've ever played it. Initially launched in 2004, this will be the first time western fans will be able to play an official English translation.

This release of Clannad comes with a few upgrades. For one, it includes HD visuals (1280x960) and also added in a Dangopedia. The digital encyclopedia offers information about Japanese pop culture and traditions referenced during play. Finally, you'll also be able to nab Steam Achievements while reading.

As with most new releases on Steam, Clannad will arrive with a launch week discount of 15% off the $49.99 regular price.
