Video game

edit

A video game adaptation of the manga, titled Everyday♪ Today's Menu for the Emiya Family (毎日♪衛宮さんちの今日のごはん, Mainichi♪ Emiya-sanchi no Kyō no Gohan) is published by Aniplex for the Nintendo Switch as a download-only title. The game was meant to be released in May 2020 until it was delayed to April 28, 2021, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[33] Aniplex later announced the game would get a North American release, which occurred on June 2, 2021.[34][35] Kim Morrissey of Anime News Network gave the game a negative review, writing that "With its sparse content, performance issues, and tepid dialogue, Everyday♪ Today's MENU for EMIYA Family is a bad game even by the standards of low-budget anime tie-ins."[36]
