While they were planning on releasing the game via Steam today, Idea Factory International have indefinitely delayed their PC release of Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth1 via the service. Claiming that they are “working around the clock to make sure it releases in tip-top shape”, IFI plan to announce a new release date as soon as it has been locked in. Steam is listing a January 30th release date, however no formal date has been confirmed by the publisher as of this post.
While Re;Birth1 has been delayed, Idea Factory International will be making good on their launch-window discounts. For the first week of launch, it will be possible to purchase Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth1 for $14.99 – 50% off the regular price.
