Nintendo Switch version was uncensored, but not the Steam release because of Valve censorship.
Edit: The latter is my assertion based on trends but not established fact in this case. Valve's historical decisions, however, are probably factored by any publisher.
That would be pretty wild. Steam has hardcore sex games with full nudity. (but then somehow banned Super Seducer 3, so this wouldn't surprise me either)
This has been going on for many years, to the point that OneAngryGamer created a 'Waifu Holocaust' list - https://archive.vn/98zUW
A little over a year ago, this topic came up and I made this comment - https://kotakuinaction2.win/p/11RNtKIvcC/x/c/
Important to note that Nintendo does NOT do the same censorship with 3rd party titles today but relies on ratings boards - which are an attack vector but at least bring some level of independence from the platform holder - while on Steam games with college student characters, or no sexuality at all, have been banned presumably for art style.
Steam's monopoly is not good. I'm hoping niche alternatives like DLSite can one day be more competitive.
