North American localizer and publisher of video games Nippon Ichi Software America have today confirmed that the release date for the third installment in the Playstation 3 comedy RPG series ‘Hyperdimension Neptunia V (Victory)’ should be available on store shelves from the 15th March 2013 in North America and Europe.
Neptune (The protagonist of Hyperdimension Neptunia) is set to reprise her role as the self-aware main character and meets friends new, old and potentially younger after getting transported back to the 1980s version of Gameindustri. They hope this installment will provide a refined and even faster-paced battle system, more dungeons and more comedy than you can waggle a controller at.
In addition to the release of the main game, the Neptunia iPhone app will be available for fans worldwide. With this app, fans can take pictures with Neptune and Noire, wake up to their voices and take advantage of other features.
About the game
Several years after preventing Arfoire’s revival, Gamindustri has remained at peace. The CPUs and their younger sisters have been enjoying their quiet lives for a while… Then one
day, the CPU of Planeptune—Neptune—is sent to another dimension. This new dimension feels very much like her own…except it has only progressed to the Gamindustri of the 1980s. In this dimension, a group of villains calling themselves the “Seven Sages” are trying to create a world free from the rule of CPUs.
With help from her new friends, including that dimension’s CPU of Planeptune—Plutia—Neptune begins her quest to protect a totally different Gamindustri in her brand-new adventure!
