Key released a demo version of the visual novel in April 2018 before releasing the complete game in June of that year. The game was ported to iOS and Android platforms in December 2018 and to Nintendo Switch in June 2019. Visual Arts published the game in English on Steam last February.
An updated version titled Summer Pockets: Reflection Blue featuring new routes and content was released in June 2020. Software company Prototype published the game on Nintendo Switch in July of the same month. The smartphone version on iOS and Android devices were subsequently updated to include the new content.
Based on the original concept by Jun Maeda (Angel Beats!, Clannad), Kai (Harmonia, Rewrite: Cradles Tale) directed the visual novel. Kai, Hasama (Tokyo Babel), and Yuu Niijima (Hatsuyuki Sakura) penned the scenarios.
Na-Ga (Little Busters!), Tsubasu Izumi (Akane Iro ni Somaru Saka), Yuunon Nagayama (Hatsukoi*Syndrome), and Humuyun (Lunaria: Virtualized Moonchild) are credited for the original character design.

That's all I want.
I don't see Shiki. What happened? Will they adapt the original SamaPoke and not the RB?
Well, we still have to wait for more news

I would not be surprised if Shizuku and Miki's route do not get adapted, but Shiki is pretty popular in JP. More popular than most of the heroines in SP afaik.
Anime announcement was in 2021. It'd be weird if they included 0 RB content given how involved key staff were and the staff comments of 'giving the fans what they want' and 'making the next key masterpiece' when RB changed/improved some of the main content of SP.
Could also just hopium.

Main Cast VAs were announced, so it’s just logic consequences that RB routes aren’t here. Shiki literally gets introduced right at the start too, so…

I have hope that Shiki + her route will be included considering the production circumstances. I'm not sure if all of RB will be included, but honestly, it would be pretty stupid not to include Shiki...

But that series comp... for summer pockets... not that feel has a ton of choices but given how long it's been in production I really hope SP gets the adaptation it deserves.
Keiichirou Oochi's comments don't give me much hope.
Alternatively the producers Nakashima and Okano are hyping it up to be the next key masterpiece.
Shiki must be included. I have faith in the staff. Please add Shiki.
