To celebrate the birthday of Rin and Len on December 27th, SEGA will be releasing two new songs for Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA Arcade Future Tone, as well as 10 new modules. While the game is only playable in the arcades at the moment, it will be released on the PS4 as a digital download in Japan next year. The new songs and modules will be available starting December 22nd in Japan.
SEGA AM2 and the Project DIVA Arcade team have announced new songs and modules for Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA Arcade Future Tone. Since the game is scheduled for a release on PS4 sometime next year in Japan, we thought it might be worth posting an article about the new update.
The new update will be available on November 5th, which also happens to be Vocaloid MEIKO’s birthday. Three songs featured in earlier Project DIVA games will be making their way to Project DIVA Arcade Future Tone. These are “Break It, Break It!”, “Clockwork Clown” and “Pinky Swear”. Along with the news songs, eight modules (also featured before in earlier Project DIVA games) will be included. You can view the announcement trailer showing the new songs below, along with screenshots of the modules and five high-resolution wallpapers which SEGA made available for download.
At their “Sega feat. Hatsune Miku Project” panel at the Tokyo Game Show, Makoto Osaki (producer for Project DIVA Arcade) and Hiroshi Utsumi (Project Manager for the Project DIVA series) revealed a bit more information on the upcoming Project DIVA X (PS Vita and PS4) and Project DIVA Future Tone (PS4).
The SCEJA conference for Tokyo Game Show 2015 has come and gone, and there wasn’t mention of the new Project DIVA title Project DIVA X at that time. However, Project DIVA Future Tone for Playstation 4 was announced after Nagoshi had concluded his presentation.
This is a port of Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA Arcade Future Tone originally for arcades. Project DIVA Arcade has actually received many revisions in its time. With Yakuza 6 being released exclusively for Playstation 4, and with other titles like Phantasy Star Online 2 (honored with a brief promotional video throughout the SCEJA 2015 conference) coming to Playstation 4, it appears that Sega is warming up to Playstation 4 exclusivity.
The game will be a digital release, and the release window right now is only specified as sometime in 2016. The announcement trailer can be seen below!
