Hyperdimension Neptunia Re; Birth2 heads west in 2015

On August 28, 2014 by Ash Meehan

Following the release of Hyperdimension Neptunia Re; Birth1, Idea Factory International has announced that they plan to bring Hyperdimension Neptunia Re; Birth2: Sisters Generation for PS Vita to both Europe and North America in early 2015.

Hyperdimension Neptunia Re; Birth2 is a remake of Hyperdimension Neptunia Mk2, the second game in Hyperdimension Neptunia series. While Re; Birth1 focused on retelling the story of how the CPUs banded together to fight a common foe, Re; Birth2 focuses on the CPU candidates and the mission to rescue their sisters, the CPUs.

Like Re; Birth1, Re; Birth 2 will also see some additions and general improvements. According to Idea Factory International’s press release, the Vita title “offers a new story, a newly revamped battle system, newly voiced characters, and new playable characters that will provide a refreshing gameplay experience for long-time Neptunia series fans and newcomers to the series.”

While Idea Factory International (IFI) only offered a physical version of Re; Birth 1 to North American fans, IFI has stated that physical and digital versions of Hyperdimension Neptunia Re; Birth2: Sisters Generation will be available in both North American and European markets

Hyperdimension Neptunia Re; Birth2 Story

20XX -Gamindustri faces a dire crisis. Shops are boarded up, creators are overworked and starving, and death looms over all Gamindustrimen. But the CPUs refuse to let this be game over for their world! Gamindustri had severed its ties to the chaotic Lawless Realm long ago, and yet…Ever since the advent of ASIC -the Arfoire Syndicate of International Crime -morality has all but vanished. As much as 80 percent of all students are rumored to worship a being known as Arfoire. Parents, despite knowing it to be a poor deity to worship, have gone ahead and allowed their children to do so. Even the governing bodies of the world have turned a blind eye to it, rather than crush the crisis in its infancy. Well, basically, Gamindustri was pretty messed up, you guys. Ahem. Thus did Gamindustri fall into complete and utter disarray. Those who tire of living in this corrupt world are sent to wander the Gamindustri Graveyard, forever lost.

Key Features:

More is better! A player can have up to 4 characters on the battlefield, and 4 more characters as supporters that can jump into the battle if their partner on the field is weakened.

New playable characters! There are several Oracles who were only there to support players in their progression through the story. The Oracles are now playable characters in Neptunia Re;Birth2!

Stella’s Dungeon! A real-time minigame that lets you send Stella out into Gamindustri’s dungeons for exploration. She might return with useful items for the main story!

Active Animation System! Ever-lively characters move and speak fluidly throughout event scenes, thanks to the Active Animation System!

Remake System! Collect “Plans” from all over Gamindustri, and fulfil the requirements to customize your gameplay experiences as you like! Plans could weaken or strengthen enemies, add new dungeons, change the items you can gather in certain dungeons, etc.

Receive Blank Discs to craft your own Game Discs! You can create unique equippable items by burning Idea Chips (abilities) onto Blank Discs! Depending on the Idea Chips used, a Godly Game may result, which will grant you an additional ability!
