Neptune Becomes A Motorcycle In ‘Hyperdimension War Neptunia VS Sega Hard Girls: Dream Fusion Special’

by Josh JacksonAugust 17, 2015

Last month, we mentioned that resident adventurer, IF, would be getting her first starring role in the now titled Hyperdimension War Neptune VS Sega Hard Girls: Dream Fusion Special. As expected, Neptune and friends would also be making an appearance, but as we would learn in the latest details released for the game, it might not be in a way we would expect.

Part of the set up of the game is Neptune’s fight against the titular Sega Hard Girls. At the start, her fight against Sega Saturn somehow gets her changed into a motorcycle. This “Nepbike” seems awfully convenient, considering IF has been known to be great on a bike in the past. How this will affect the story or game play hasn’t been revealed, but at some point, you just kind of have to shrug your shoulders and go with it when it comes with this series.

IF and Sega Hatsumi will travel across five different eras, each of which represent a different time in Sega’s hardware history. According to Gematsu, these include:

The Mega Drive Era- An ancient civilization.

The Game Gear Era- A civilization based on a Steampunk design.

The Sega Saturn Era- A civilization that appears similar to Middle Ages Europe.

The Dreamcast Era- The most advanced civilization, most resembling modern times.

The Modern Era- A mostly destroyed land, mirroring Sega’s fall as a hardware developer.

In addition, some of the supporting cast has been revealed. The characters we know about so far are as follows:

Uzume Tennouboshi (voiced by Mariko Honda)

Plutia (voiced by Kana Hanazawa)

Nepgear (voiced by Yui Horie)

Sega Saturn (voiced by Minami Takahashi)

Dreamcast (voiced by MAO)

Mega Drive (voiced by Shiori Izawa)

Game Gear (voiced by Minami Tanaka)

With so much information being released, it’s odd that we still don’t know what kind of game this will be! Still, you know that once we know, we’ll be sure to pass it down to you! What are you expecting from the battle between Neptunia and the Sega Hard Girls? Sound off below!

Details Surface For The Ridiculously Titled ‘Hyperdimension Neptunia Vs. Sega Hard Girls: Dream Fusion Special’

by Josh JacksonJuly 13, 2015

If you couldn’t tell by reading our site or listening to the Geekscape Games podcast, Idea Factory can really churn out those Hyperdimension Neptunia games. Within the last year, the West has seen six as it is, with a proper sequel AND a zombie slaying spin-off starring Lowee’s CPU, Blanc, on the horizon. And yet, what if I told you that yet another spinoff is on its way?

In Hyperdimension Neptunia Vs. Sega Hard Girls, this upcoming Vita exclusive will put players in the oversized coat of IF, one of the original human, or “maker” characters from the original RPG who has stood by Neptune’s side ever since. This tough, no nonsense guild leader finally gets a starring role, (and a redesign to go with it,) once the history books of the Grand Library begin to disappear. Altering these stories has the ability to change history itself, so Iffy takes it upon herself to go on an adventure through space and time to get them back.

Not that she’ll be alone on this adventure. As the title mentioned, Sega themed characters will make their appearance to fight alongside IF, namely Sega Hatsumi. This girl with an outfit that vaguely reminds us of a certain hedgehog, seems to be the key to the changes in history between the Sega Hard Girls and the four goddesses of Gamindustri, but how her role will play out is yet to be seen.

Game play wise, details are still murky as to what kind of game this will be, but based on the screenshots released so far, the game seems to be taking a more action based approach, which is perfect for the knife wielding heroine and her tough personality. Whether or not any other familiar faces will appear is yet to be seen as well, but come on, it’s a Neptunia game! It’s practically expected at this point.

Check out the latest screenshots and the official synopsis from Dengeki Online below, and make sure to keep checking back for more information on this and other titles as it breaks.

Story

A grand library that governs all of this world’s history.

If the history books stored there are tampered with, it is said that it is possible to rewrite actual history.

IF, with a certain goal in mind and after a long journey, finally sets foot within the grand library.

However, within that library, an incident occurs and the history books begin to disappear one after the other.

The disappearance of the history books means a loss of real history.

Before her very eyes, history is being lost, and then, the world.

To resolve this incident, IF must journey across space and time on a new adventure.

■ Characters

IF (voiced by Kana Ueda)

The game’s protagonist. She’s an adventurer who travels around the world with her trusty motorcycle just trying to find a bit of fun and a brighter future in a modern age where civilization has fallen. She’s diligent, cool, and level-headed, as well as the group peacemaker, but her only flaw is that she suffers a little bit from chuunibyou syndrome.

Sega Hatsumi (voiced by Emi Nitta)

An unidentifiable girl who lost her memory. She goes by Segami, or Segamin. Although she doesn’t remember anything outside her own name, for some reason she shows an uncommon tenacity in changing the history of the conflict between the goddesses and Sega Hard Girls. Although she has the spirit of a leader and is charismatic, she occasionally doesn’t listen to others when they talk, and bewilders her friends with ideas out of left field.
