Robotics;Notes adapts the Xbox 360/PlayStation 3 game of the same name by the makers of Steins;Gate and Chaos;HEAd. The third "Science Adventure game" is set in an alternate future world after Tokyo's Shibuya district was destroyed in 2009, followed by the destruction of the Radio Kaikan building in Tokyo's Akihabara a year later.

The world is immersed in realistic augmented reality technology in 2019, but a high school robotics research club is in danger of being disbanded after shrinking to just two members. The club's revival is tied to the robot it is building, as well as with climactic events around the world.
