Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X – Extended Gameplay Demo and Overview From E3 2016

InTheSky June 15, 2016 Leave a reply

GameSpot has published a 15-minute gameplay demo of Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X. Some of the demoed songs include Satisfaction, LOL – lots of laugh -, and Cyber Rock Jam – Cool Medley. Since part of the song list is viewable, we can also see the localized names for certain song titles, such as “Urotander Underhanded Rangers”.

This is meant to serve as an overview of what makes this game representative of the Project DIVA series in general, and also what makes this title different from previous entries, with such features as the new “Rush” mechanic where you mash the button as its prompted by the game. We should all be familiar by now with some of this game’s differences, including module collecting and equipping, and the new, conceptualized “story mode” of sorts known as the Live Quest mode, with character interactions and categorized song types.

Check out the video below! The demoed version of the game is the English version. Hopefully it may tide North American gamers over until its August 30th release date.

IGN Interview with Sam Mullen on Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X’s Module System

InTheSky June 15, 2016 1 Reply

IGN conducted a short interview with Sam Mullen (listed as Atlus Producer) regarding Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X. It focuses largely on the new module-gathering system for the game relative to other entries in the Project DIVA series. Whereas in the past modules were acquired simply by spending the requisite amount of points, in the Project DIVA X modules are acquired via successfully completing Chance Time in a song, at which point players will receive a randomly-generated module.

It is stated that the awarded module can be affected by existing bonus attributes of currently equipped modules. Project DIVA X features more than 300 modules, including those from all previous Project DIVA games and new ones introduced for Project DIVA X. Better prepare yourself for Chance time!

LOL – lots of laugh – is featured in the background. Check out the interview below:

Odin Sphere Leifthrasir is now available in the Americas for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita! Developed by Vanillaware and published by ATLUS, the game is a remastered version of the original PS2 game Odin Sphere, and features graphical upgrades, new content and revamped gameplay.

Atlus U.S.A. has also made a special Storybook Edition available for the PS4 version for the game, containing plenty of extra’s. You can view an unboxing video of the Storybook Edition in the video below, as well as images of its contents. We also included the new full trailer and the official press release from Atlus. The European launch is scheduled for June 24, where it will be published by NISA Europe. We’re also working on a review of the game, which we hope to release between now and the launch of the game in the EU.

Hatsune Miku: Project Diva X Receives PG Rating in Australia, Published by SEGA Europe

Draikin June 4, 2016 2 Replies

Gematsu reports that Hatsune Miku: Project Diva X has received a rating in Australia, suggesting that the game will in fact be released there. What’s also interesting is that SEGA Europe is listed as the game’s publisher, so this makes it rather likely that Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X will be released in Europe as well. Previously, SEGA Europe had stated that they were looking into releasing the game in Europe, although online retailer Rice Digital has been selling the EU version of the game for a while now. Hopefully, we’ll get a confirmation that the game is indeed heading to Europe soon!

SEGA Europe “Looking into Bringing Project DIVA X to Europe” + Ideas for the 20th Anniversary of NiGHTS

Draikin June 1, 2016 Leave a reply

In the latest round of answers to #AskSEGA questions on today’s episode of SEGA Central, SEGA Europe community manager Dan Sheridan answered a question from a fan asking if they’re planning on releasing Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X in Europe:

We’ve heard feedback from Miku fans since the announcement in America and we are looking into how we can bring Hatsune Miku: Project Diva X to Europe. Stay tuned for updates.

While not a confirmation that the game is coming to Europe, this at least seems a bit more encouraging than their comment on 7th Dragon III: Code VFD. Hopefully, those updates will come soon. With the game releasing on the PlayStation 4 in North America only a few days after its launch in Japan, it would certainly be a shame to see this game released much later (or not at all) in Europe.

The SEGA feat. Hatsune Miku Project website has been updated with the news that Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X HD will be getting two new songs as DLC when the game’s PS4 version is released.

Draikin May 24, 2016 Leave a reply

Atlus U.S.A. has announced that the PS4 demo for Odin Sphere Leifthrasir is now available on the US PSN. The PlayStation Vita version for the game is scheduled to be released later, on May 31, due to unforeseen circumstances. However, there doesn’t seem to be any mention of a PS3 demo. The demo allows you to play all of the five protagonists (Gwendolyn, Cornelius, Mercedes, Velvet and Oswald).

Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir is scheduled to be released on the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, and PS Vita in North America on June 7. In Europe, the game will be released on June 24, and will also be the last Atlus game published by NISA Europe.

Atlus U.S.A. has distributed a new trailer for the character of Velvet ahead of the upcoming release of Odin Sphere Leifthrasir outside of Japan. We’ve attached a small gallery of images, the trailer itself, and a press release to the bottom of this article. This completes the character trailer series for the game, but perhaps we may see different trailers in the future.

Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X Will Support Cross-Platform Save Data Across All Regions (UPDATE)

Draikin May 9, 2016 1 Reply

UPDATE: Note that you still need to use the same PSN account across the different platforms. It’s not possible to transfer save data from one PSN account on another.

Original article:

Localization Producer Sam Mullen has given Project DIVA fans some great news regarding the upcoming release of Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X in the West. Previously, it had been reported that the “Import Save” feature from Project DIVA F 2nd wouldn’t be present in Project DIVA X. This led fans to assume that it wouldn’t be possible to transfer savegames from the Japanese version to the US(/EU?) one. However, it turns out that this isn’t actually the case. While the import feature is indeed gone, that’s simply because it’s no longer necessary. In fact, Project DIVA X will now use a single Cross Save repository across all platforms and regions the game will be available on. For more details, we copied Sam Mullen’s explanation from NeoGAF here:

Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X: PlayStation Vita vs. PlayStation 4 Comparison, Part 2

Draikin April 30, 2016 3 Replies

In an earlier article we already compared screenshots from the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita version of Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X. With the footage from the PlayStation 4 version of Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA X that SEGA of Japan provided yesterday, we can now compare how both versions of the game look in motion. It should be noted though that the PS4 version is very much a work in progress, so none of what we see is final. In fact, as I’ll point out in this article later on, some changes have already been made to the game compared to the original screenshots.
