The Committee of Steins;Gate’s Light Novels

Article updated in September 2015, originally written with the help of Default Melody and LordHaruto.

Created by 5pb. and Nitro+, Steins;Gate became a reference among visual novels.

Since it’d be better to make all the fruits drop from the banana tree, the franchise has been adapted in several ways, including light novels.

As there is a lot of Steins;Gate LNs, here is a list of those which have been published as of now.
