Support NeoGAF

[Jigorath]

Nice, physical Vita version.

 

[Captain Rage Quit 69]

Diva X is more focused with Miku music. The other characters are almost rare with their music and performances. Which is the only thing I can really knock about Diva X.

Oh really? A shame, but I'll still dip for the music and gameplay.

I can at least shove Luka in every music video right? '~'

 

[Akibared]

Thank you based Sega!!

 

[A Huge Battleship]

Sold. Ideally an EU physical release'll be announced, but I'll import if I have to.

 

[hosannainexcelsis]

I'll pass in favor of Future Tone, but I appreciate that Sega continues to support Project Diva here.

 

[Trigonometrize.]

Oh really? A shame, but I'll still dip for the music and gameplay.

Yep. In fact it's encouraged with how the module unlocking works.

 

[Zhao_Yun]

Great news! Will buy on Vita.
I am kinda annoyed that Sega doesn't announce these things for Europe at the same time these days. It's like Atlus bought SEGA instead of the other way around. Hope we'll get physical editions in Europe as well...

 

[atlusprime]

It's time once again for me to remind Sega of how trash I think star notes are. I wish the series would just finally move on from them.

Almost as trash as your SFV play? (j/k ilu)

Also, it's coming to "PS4" and "PS Vita", whatever those are code for. *heh*

I don't get it?

 

[MillionStabs]

Keep the Vita physical Miku games coming Sega, and you'll be slightly more relevant in my eyes

 

[bobawesome]

I told myself I was going to import the Vita version soon but now I may just hold off for the PS4 version...

 

[8 X 11 Printer Paper]

They're wrong. North and South America are the only thing we're announcing for right now.

Okay good, thought I read the PR wrong for a second there and was about to rush to edit my new article.

Anyway another Fall in America and another Miku game!

 

[Null Pointer]

Hey guys, Sam Mullen here, localization producer for the Project DIVA series here in the States. Just poppin' it to say hi! and tell you guys that Project DIVA X is shaping up to be killer.

It's been a pretty big undertaking with more content than ever and the addition of story elements to the game, making Project DIVA X a different kind of DIVA game and a different kind of localization project. I'm really looking forward to seeing what you guys think as the release draws closer.

Keep your eyes peeled for more information down the road, and for anyone who imported it, I hope you will check out the English version too.

Oh, and don't bother asking about Future Tone. I got nothing for you.

 

[DSix]

All I want to know is if the PS4 version will have a PSVR mode.

 

[JustAnotherOtaku]

Mere hours after my JP version ships. Still, would prefer to be playing it now rather than a packed Q4.

 

[LordGorchnik]

Is it wrong for me to be worried that they said nothing about Future Tone? I really hope they don't base that games localization opportunity on X's sales because from what I've read on the impressions of that game it is mostly a disappointment.

Songs are mostly on a pre-rendered stage with no "storey video" to go along with them
Modules incredibly RNG based and hard to unlock
Very few non-Miku songs.

EDIT: Welp didn't see Sam up there. Sam for the love of all that is holy, please let your big-wigs know we want Future Tone. I know localizations can be dependent on sales of copies of other games beforehand but I really hope that's not the primary driver for this one. Still definitely purchasing a copy for my PS4 and VITA as I love all things Miku but please.

Please Sam.

When it comes to Diva games, I always double dip

 

[The Broken Ska Record]

Awesome! I can't wait.

 

[Producer]

getting it on ps4 for 60fps greatness

 

[YianGaruga]

They're wrong. North and South America are the only thing we're announcing for right now.

why

Thanks for localizing it anyway

Thanks for the work you and the rest do in bringing the series over to the West!

So you can at least tell the bigwigs to give us Future Tone right

 

[Hycran]

Only 30 songs?

Damn, they are going to rake us over the coals for DLC

I'm double dipping for sure, I love the JP version soooo much.

 

[Namikaze]

Now that I have a gaming monitor, I'll definitely pick it up on PS4. I'm assuming it will be 1080p60?

 

[StarCreator]

That was confirmed on the Japanese end just this week, so it should also hold true of the localized PS4 version.

I'm triple dipping for sure... if this even comes out in Europe. </3

 

[KanameYuuki]

Even physical version for Vita, then the past games have been quite a success I suppose, can't wait.

 

[Remembrance]

I assume it is Atlus's distribution that continues to make the physical Vita copies possible. More than I dared hope for.

 

[ar4757]

They're wrong. North and South America are the only thing we're announcing for right now.

thanks based atlusprime

and /r/megaten loves you even if some don't sound like they do

 

[Lambtron]

This is great news to see after DHL fucked up the delivery of my wife's import copy for the FOURTH CONSECUTIVE DAY.

 

[Nazo]

Awesome news! I'm a little surprised its taken this long to announce the localization honestly.

 

[LordGorchnik]

Awesome news! I'm a little surprised its taken this long to announce the localization honestly.

Game only just now released for our Eastern brothers and sisters no? Certainly not the longest wait we've had; especially given a SEGA localization.

'cough' PSO2 'cough'

 

[emiliano]

Awww... Why Europe
I'm waiting eagerly for news.

 

[Shizuka]

Keep supporting the Vita and I'll keep supporting your business.

 

[Tenshi]

Swift timing, Sega. Glad to see this coming to the west so quickly.

Thanks for your hard work. Bummer to hear about Future Tone but I didn't expect it to come over anyway. Will just buy on the JP store.

I assume it is Atlus's distribution that continues to make the physical Vita copies possible. More than I dared hope for.

I guess it's their distribution which leads to the EU version hanging in limbo once more then?

 

[8 X 11 Printer Paper]

I'm pretty sure Sega did this for Project Diva F 2nd, announced it's localization within a week or so of the Japanese release.

And what about Miracle Girls Festival?

I was going to ask how it was coming out so quickly with all the extra dialogue, but it sounds like you guys are on top of it.
Can you confirm if we can import Japanese data? Module hunting is a pain and I would like not have to do it again.

 

[kagamin]

Any info about Europe?
And what about Miracle Girls Festival?

MGF would be a nightmare what with all the anime featured in it.

 

[Daft Punk]

Only 30 songs?

Damn, they are going to rake us over the coals for DLC

You know you're going to buy it like the rest of us.

 

[Prelude.]

MGF would be a nightmare what with all the anime featured in it.

Yeah but we got both Dengeki Bunko and J-Stars so you never know.

 

[Guymelef]

Only 30 songs?

Damn, they are going to rake us over the coals for DLC

Buying Future Tone from JP Store will be A LOT better deal.

 

[Ekoria]

Yeah, 30 songs is disappointing, especially when F 2nd had 40.

 

[Ryan95]

I hope this will come to Europe too (no matter if physical or digital) and, if it does, I hope SEGA won't take months to announce it (like it happened with Yakuza 0)

 

[StarCreator]

Yeah, 30 songs is disappointing, especially when F 2nd had 40.

This came up previously, and this is what I had to say then:

30 songs is the shortest song list in series history, but not short to the point that it would be considered a partial game by any means. Song count history:

Project DIVA: 32 (+4 alternate vocals)
Project DIVA 2nd: 46 (+10 DLC, ~13+2 repeats)
Project DIVA extend: 37 (~13 repeats)
Project DIVA f: 32 (+ 7 DLC, 0.5 repeats)
Project DIVA F 2nd: 40 (+16 DLC, ~20+15 repeats)

Repeat counts are approximate based on a quick pass through the list from memory.

In that respect, it's not really far off from f in the amount of new content being introduced, since I believe very little of X's songlist are repeats.

Thanks for localizing the game! I've already imported the game, but I'll of course be getting the English version as well (even if I have to import the US one).

 

[Link Man]

They're wrong. North and South America are the only thing we're announcing for right now.

I would imagine you can't say anything at the moment regarding this, but I am hoping for a western release of Future Tone as well. But really glad PS4 is getting at least one Miku, will definitely look forward to it!

 

[R_thanatos]

DAY 1 PS4

 

[ChrisD]

Nice! I never picked up Diva F 2nd, so I'll just hold out for this.



Ye, I want Ignition as well.

Sure you've been told this countless times in the thread already, but F2nd is a great game with lots of content that X won't have. Can be bought pretty cheap these days, too.

Though if you're worried about burning out I get ya'.


I'll be buying both versions when they come over here. ^^
