Hyperdimension Neptunia ReBirth 3: V Generation Announced For West In 2015 (PSVita, PSTV)

Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;birth 3: V Generation has been announced for release in America & Europe this year, hitting in Summer of 2015 exclusively for PS Vita & PlayStation TV. It will be available both in physical form at retail and digitally via the PlayStation Network. It is the third remake in this Japanese RPG series.

Check out the intro for the Japanese version of the game.

As stated above, ReBirth 3 marks the third remake in this series for PSVita, all of the game’s being PSVita remakes of the original PS3 versions. The first entry was called “Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 1” in 2013, the second was called “Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 2: Sisters Generation” in 2014, and now we have “Hyperdimension Neptunia ReBirth 3: V Generation” in 2015. The first game was also released on PC.

This new version features more story, more scenarios, and an even higher dosage of fourth-wall-breaking comedy! Free DLC, which adds Japanese audio, will also be supported from the outside and the Downloadable Content to patch in the audio will be free.

PLOT
It’s time to Nep-Nep like it’s 1989. Neptune’s been sucked into an alternate dimension of Gamindustri! In order for her to escape from this late ’80s world, Neptune will have to collect enough shares to open up the path to her own dimension. Sounds easy enough – except a nefarious alliance called the Seven Sages wants to rid Gamindustri of all CPUs, including Neptune!

Forging cross-dimensional friendships, will Neptune be able to defeat the Seven Sages, save this alternate dimension and get back to her own, or will she be stuck in the ’80s forever?

Key Hyperdimension Neptunia ReBirth 3: V Generation Features:

* +1 to Combos! Customize attack combinations with up to five moves, opening up a whole new array of ways to defeat your enemies!

* New Story! Play through new story and scenarios when someone else joins the Console War fray and refuses to play by the rules!

* Bring a Dungeon Buddy! Stella’s Dungeon is back, and this time she can bring friends! Each is equipped with special skills that lend their support to Stella in her items quest, so choose wisely!

* Remake in your Image! Modify the world of Gamindustri to your liking by creating “Plans” that alter dungeon treasures, enemy difficulty, and more!

* Get Crafty! Customize powerful equipment that can unlock the true power of the CPUs, opening up a world of new skills for them to use!

I’m happy to see that this quirky JRPG series continues to get Western releases, all thanks to Idea Factory International, so huge kudos to them!

It’s good to see that game’s like this continue to get released on the PlayStation Vita, giving poor Vita owners more new games and really making the PSVita a JRPG fans wet dream.
