A New Batch Of ‘Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 2’ Make Our Vitas Tremble In Anticipation

Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth, was a one of the best surprises of the year, with us going as far as saying that it was one of the best RPGs in years. I mean, what better way to appeal to gamers than to make a game about the console wars framed within a anime-esque magical girl banner? It’s as absurd, (and entertaining), as it sounds.

Which is why we were thrilled to learn a few months back that the second game would also be coming to the West for the Vita! Re;Birth 2, a rebuilt version of the PS3’s Hyperdimension Neptunia mk.2, shines the spotlight on the sisters of the first game’s CPUs, each of which represent handhelds like the DS and PSP. Idea Factory is promising new characters, scenarios and surprises for both new and old, with returning favorites such as IF and Compa, as they fight to rescue the four goddesses of the original.

Have no clue what I’m talking about? Check out the latest batch of screenshots, showing off the colorful characters, world and battles that fill the world of Gamindustri. Hopefully this will make the wait for early 2015 a little more bearable. Nah, who am I kidding. I want it now!
