It has been collected into two tankobon volumes published by Kadokawa as of February 2021 with the second volume released last August 2020.


English publisher Yen Press describes the novel as:

The last thing she can remember is her life support beginning to fail. Her body had suffered terribly after a fateful accident and the only freedom left in her life came from the VR world of Leadale. How did she end up in a place that looks exactly like her game except that 200 years have apparently gone by?


Yen Press released the first volume in English in October 2020, and will release the second volume on February 23.
