Hatsune Miku: Project Diva X has been revealed for PS Vita and PS4. The game launches in Japan on PS Vita in March 2016 while the PS4 version is coming later in the year (currently scheduled for Autumn 2016). You can check out the reveal trailer below featuring the new song Raspberry Monster by Honeyworks:
There is currently no word on a Western release but considering the West has recently got Project Diva F, F 2nd and Project Mirai DX, it would be strange for SEGA to miss out on this one. All my fingers are crossed.
Phantasy Star Online 2 is making the big move from PC to console in Japan next year.
A PS4 version is currently in the works but there’s no word on whether this will be a boxed product or a free-to-play download like the PC version. Other MMORPGs that have seen PS4 release like Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn have been sold as a boxed product but this game works on a subscription service with the purchase of a boxed copy essentially signing you up for 30 days.
There is still no word on a Western release for Phantasy Star Online 2 on either PC or PS4. There was a glimmer of hope when the IP block on the Southeast Asian version was removed but this was only temporary. SEGA have still yet to announce any sort of cancellation either.
Tembo the Badass Elephant is due for release tomorrow on PS4, Xbox One and Steam as a digital-only title. The game is SEGA’s second collaboration with Game Freak (creators of Pokemon) and the first since 1994’s Pulseman for the Mega Drive. The game is stylistically similar to the rhythm-based platforming of Rayman Origins.
A Hatsune Miku VR demo has been revealed at E3. Currently working under the title SEGA feat. Hatsune Miku Project: VR Tech Demo, the PS4 and Project Morpheus-powered demo allows you to attend a virtual Hatsune Miku live show and shake a Move controller like a glow-stick. Thankfully there’s a little more to it than that and the experience generally takes the form of a simple rhythm game.
SEGAbits managed to grab some off-screen footage of the demo in action which you can watch below:
There is currently no confirmation as to whether this demo will be released to the public or even be developed into a full game. If we’re going to be honest, this just looks like the sort of thing Sony have commissioned in order to show off the abilities of Project Morpheus. Fingers crossed it actually develops into something more than that.
Well this is an odd yet obvious inclusion when you think about it: Hatsune Miku has been added to Just Dance 2016.
The game allows you to perform Ievan Polkka which is normally used as the tutorial song in Project Diva games. Check out the trailer below and watch creepy cosplay Miku in action:
Just Dance 2016 launches on PS4, Wii U and Xbox One this October.
Yu Suzuki has gone indie to reveal the Kickstarter for Shenmue III!
Suzuki revealed the game on stage at Sony’s E3 conference and is asking for $2 million to fund the game’s development. At the time of writing $1,623,910 has already been raised by 19,305 people but you can literally watch it increase on the website.
The game will be built in Unreal 4 and the Kickstarter has several tiers with exclusive content for those that are interested. $29 will get you a digital copy of the game, $60 will get you a physical copy and $120 will get you the game as well as an actual Shenmue capsule toy.
SEGA will publish a new 2D action platformer developed by Game Freak called Tembo the Badass Elephant. As Tembo you must battle the evil PHANTOM army from taking over Shell City. Check out the announcement trailer below; it’s all kinds of fun:
Tembo the Badass Elephant will launch this summer on PC, PS4 and Xbox One as a digital-only title.
Well I don’t think anyone saw this coming! The previously Japan exclusive fighting game Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax will get a Western release on PS3 and PS Vita. The European release will be digital-only while the game will get a digital and boxed release in North America.
The fighting game brings together characters from manga and anime series’ like Sword Art Online, Accel World, A Certain Magical Index and Durarara!! The game also features SEGA characters like Akira from Virtua Fighter and Selvaria from Valkyria Chronicles.
Check out the announcement trailer below:
Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax will be released this summer.
Ryu Ga Gotoku Zero has a new trailer to its name and it’s a whopping 15 minutes. The new trailer focuses on the game’s story which means you’re in for a lot of Japanese as this is a Japan exclusive title. Check out the new trailer below:
Ryu Ga Gotoku Zero launches on PS3 and PS4 on the 12th of March 2015.
The previously arcade exclusive and SEGA-published fighter Guilty Gear Xrd SIGN is coming to North America. The localisation and publishing will be handled by Aksys and not SEGA. The game will be getting released for both PS3 and PS4 systems.
Currently there is no word on what will happen with the game in Europe. Aksys has only committed to an English port for the North American market but it’s certainly a step closer to getting the game more exposure in the Western world.
